Hi I'm asking this for my friend Sadie. She lives in LA and has been having a lot of back issues. Her regular physician suggested that it is probably time to think about having back/spinal surgery. She wants to go to a good place (obviously!) in her area that can help her and ease some of her fears, etc. I have visited this site before and have seen people asking for recommendations for doctors in certain areas so I thought I'd ask about LA and good back/spine hospitals. Thank you so much.
