Dr. Vincent R Prusick

I had severe spinal stenosis in L-3,4,5 for several years and Blue Cross denied my surgery with Dr. Prusick twice during that time. The only relief I had was narcotic pain killers. They finally accepted the fact that I needed surgery after I started to lose some lower body functions. Dr. Prusick did a triple fusion on me in April and I am finally pain free. I can not say enough good about this Dr.! He is an excellent surgeon and person!

He performs miracles! My husband crawled to the car on the day of his surgery and was back to work and virtually pain free Less than 2 weeks later! Thank you Dr. Prusick

Dr. Prusick was fantastic. He performed a micro-discectomy on my lower back. Was in pain for a year before he did the surgery. About 5 weeks out and I am feeling so much better. Have to take it easy for a bit longer, but the pain from my lower back was immediately gone. I would recommend Dr. Prusick if you are suffering with chronic lower back pain in Traverse City.

Surgery was life changing. At 70 I was worried that I would never feel good again. He performed a lumbar fusion and it is a new world. I feel great-no pain. Very considerate and nice.

Very caring, thorough, and stays up to date on the latest procedures and treatments.

DR. PRUSICK HAS REPLACED BOTH MY KNEES AND I HAVE BEEN VERY HAPPY AND PLEASED WITH EVERY THING HE HAS DONE. For me . HE IS 5 STAR IN MY BOOK AND HE IS A VERY KIND PERSON WHICH MAKES IT BETTER??????????

Dr. Prusik is an excellent surgeon. Not only is he very current and proficient, he is compassionate and has the ability to explain the most complex anatomical and physiological circumstances to his patients. I am a health care professional so my standards are a bit high. I would recommend (and have recommended) Dr. Prusik completely and without reservation to anyone seeking an orthopedic surgeon.

I had back pain for years to the point where I could not walk more then 60 ft.I was not one day without back pain for years.I asked Dr. Prusick if he could just relieve my pain 60% I would be happy.Hesaid he could do me better then that ,and he did.I am now pain free,most of the time.I only have pain when I overdue it.I am more then pleased with the surgery he did on my back .He is easy to talk to and explains thigs to you well.I am very pleased with his work.

He is the best, very nice, my knee had hardly any pain and is doing great

He told why I had knee pain in a way that was easy to understand. He showed me the xrays

Prior to my laminectomy fusion in December 2015, I was basically confined to my house and in severe pain for nearly an entire year. I was apprehensive to have this procedure performed, but was put at ease by Dr. Prusick and his diagnosis and recommendation. The surgery was a success, and I'm happy to say, as I'm leaving my last follow up appointment, that I'm PAIN FREE! What a change in a year! I would not hesitate to recommend D. Prusick and his staff to my family and friends.

Doctor played spinal fusion surgery down from beginning. First I was told recovery 1-2 months. Then 3-4 and everyone is different. Then 4-6, up to a year. He started physical therapy at a little over 2 months, which normally would have been aquatic but since my incision wasn't healed he had me start regular which turned out to be more painful since most doctors don't start that kind of PT until after 3 months. To make everything even more difficult getting pain medication was a nightmare.
