I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Doctor Alfonso Vega Sosa and his medical team. My dad suffered from very strong radicular pain in his lower extremities, so he could not stand up for more than 5 minutes, he was losing his balance and strength, he could not sleep and had already fallen several times. After being through several tests and being evaluated by the medical team, he was diagnosed with a severe Spinal Stenosis of L4L5, which compressed his nerve roots and had to be operated on. My 59 years old dad, had a rather complex medical condition, he is diabetic, has liver problems, and suffered a heart attack at the beginning of 2020. He traveled from Venezuela to Mexico City and underwent surgery on March 3, 2023. They discharged him the next day without any issues, to the point of him going for a walk after leaving the hospital. He underwent a bilateral L4L5 percutaneous tubular microdecompression using an over the top technique. The advantage of minimally invasive surgery is that recovery is immediate since less damage is done to the body than in open surgery, which translates into less pain, shorter hospitalization time, and less risk of complications.
He had excellent attention, treatment, explanation, and diagnosis. They were very empathetic, professional and the most important thing was the humane treatment towards him and his family. Doctor Alfonso Vega Sosa, is not only a pioneer in his area, but also has all the knowledge and experience to perform minimally invasive spinal surgeries, and he also has an excellent team of doctors; two specialists in Neurosurgery and spine surgery; Doctor Apolinar De La Luz Lagunas, and Doctor Gilfredo José González Basile, two anesthesiologists specialized in Neuroanesthesiology; Doctor Eduardo Ramírez and Doctor Gerardo Mota, an excellent neuro-instrumental nurse Veronica Herrera, among others on the team, all of them together make a perfect team and are prepared for any eventuality.
With all the confidence in the world, I recommend Doctor Alfonso Vega Sosa and his entire team. Thanks to them, my dad is a new person, youthful, strong and with a different attitude towards life. Now he can walk without pain and return to his daily normal life.
