I had a herniated disc that was pinching a nerve in my back causing my left are to go numb aching alot and full of never ending pain. I was using heating pad,medicine and some xanex to help get some sleep at night but it really didn't help out like I hoped it would. Dr Massey had looked at my x-ray an seen were the bluing disc was pinching a nerve between my c6 an c7 located in the upper spine area. He was able to go in through the front of my neck and move over laying organs to proceed with the surgery. It did fix the problem causing the numbness an the pain. I am so Thankful for his experince with this type of surgery. I would highly recomend him to anyone who needs this done
