I have had back issues for more than 10 years after a car accident. I have been shuffled from doctor to doctor saying you need surgery but your too young but then bounce me back and forth from doctor to doctor. I was sent to Dr. Westra and he said the same thing, I need surgery but not yet. But then he took the time to figure out what he could do to help for now. After a few tests and many appointments, he found out that I have a nerve giving me problems and knows how to help. I appreciate Dr Westra and I know he cares and is willing to take time with you. He is also very intelligent and I trust him completely!!! It takes time to get appointments with him, but he is worth the wait!

Dr Westra listened earnestly as I recounted how I hurt my back and why I think I need additional treatment, not questioning me about exact time frames. Then we went over my MRIs and he explained to me what I was seeing in the pictures and a few reasons why I might be feeling the pain I have. The doctor then explained that we would have some CAT scan images and look closer at my previous operation. Dr Westra seems anxious to help me and I am very thankful.

I’m a lifelong athlete, surfer, skier, cyclist, and general workout addict… just describing my perspective and how important recovering from back injury was to me. Came to Dr Westra with an acute (surfing) disc injury, which had caused disc debris to be wrapped around several nerve roots. Could barely walk and in constant debilitating pain. Dr Westra was brilliant in diagnosis, treatment, surgery and recovery. He listened carefully to all concerns and addressed each with care and understanding. I have recommended him to several others in need of similar care. He’s a true professional and knows his stuff. I couldn’t be happier. I’m 100% back to all activities, truly remarkable considering how bad off I was just 6 months ago. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
