Walk through the ADR surgery process with Dr. Lanman:
➡️ The ADR surgical process begins by sending Dr. Lanman’s office your X-rays, MRI and CT scan and a summary of your symptoms.
➡️ After Dr. Lanman reviews them, his office will reach out to schedule your consultation if he thinks you’re a potential candidate.
➡️ During your consultation, the doctor will examine you, discuss your whole health picture, and review your X-ray studies.
➡️ If everything points to you being a good candidate for ADR surgery, you’ll schedule your surgery for a date and time that works for everyone.
➡️ You’ll meet Dr. Lanman at the hospital the morning of your planned surgery. Each disc replacement will take about one hour.
➡️ As you recover, you’ll return to Dr. Lanman’s office for a wound check in two weeks and begin physical therapy after a six-week X-ray check.
➡️ At this point, you’ll begin returning to your everyday life, looking forward to feeling good at three weeks and great at three months post-op.
