Outstanding, completley healed and back to 2-3 hour workouts. I had to have a second back surgery. Exceptionally responsive, medical staff, office staff, and administration. These people know what they are doing. If you want the best chance of medical success, Marina Spine Center is your greatest opportunity. Overall FIVE STAR!!

I injured my back in August of 2016 while working as a police officer. I was experiencing significant lower back pain and leg pain. I was diagnosed with a herniated disc and was simply told that I needed to see a back specialist and was placed off work. I saw two back surgeons prior to being referred to Dr. Watkins, IV. The first surgeon spent about 1 minute in the room with me on my first visit. This visit consisted of a quick glance at my MRI (approx. 3 secs) then he stated, "You don't need surgery, would you like to go back to work full duty? I thought he was joking which he was not. He requested I do some physical therapy but needless to say I switched to another doctor. The second doctor was nicer and wasn't as rushed as the first. I had already done several sessions of PT which strengthened my core but did not help with my leg or back pain. This doctor stated, "Well if PT isn't helping then I'm all out of options." With little hope for recovering I was then referred to Dr. Watkins, IV by a co-worker. My first visit with Dr. Watkins was a relief. After 4 months of dealing with my injury it was refreshing to see a doctor who was sincere and cared about my recovery and did not treat me as a number. Dr Watkins explained in depth what was wrong with my back and also showed me on my MRI. He requested an epidural injection to help speed up my recovery which was non-existent at that time. I also continued with more physical therapy. For the first time in months I was optimistic. This optimism soon disappeared when my injection was denied by workers comp. I continued with several more months of physical therapy with no relief. Dr Watkins then suggested that he perform a microdiscectomy surgery. I agreed due to trying everything from the chiropractor, accupuncture, physical therapy, and rest with no progress over the course of 8 months. As soon as my surgery was approved he was able to get me in for surgery as soon as 1 week later. I am now 8 weeks post op and have been going to PT for 4 of those weeks. I am gaining my strength back and seeing a dramatic improvement as the weeks go on. On days that I do not have PT I use Dr. Watkins App, "Back Doctor." This app walks you through step by step in core strengthening and allows you to build up your strength at your own pace. It also sets goals that you should reach prior to returning to physical activities to prevent a re-injury. 4 months after surgery I was back to work, running, and lifting weights! I highly recommend Dr Watkins, IV.
