Pacific Spine Specialists

I am now 8 months removed from a three level cervical fusion. Prior to the surgery I was at wit's end in terms of the daily nagging pain in my neck and shoulders. Physical Therapy and accupuncter helped but not to any significant degree. Once I finally had the proper tests and procedures and a consult with Dr. Keenan, I felt there was at last a clear path forward. For me the surgery was absolutely the right decision; despite the small trepidation I had at the time. At this point I have seen noteworthy progress, Daily tasks and functions are remarkably improved. Moving forward, I am convinced there is even more progress to be had. Dr. Keenan and staff have been absolutely top notch through the whole process.

I was in constant, debilitating pain from bilateral sacroiliac joint dysfunction resulting from a prior extensive lumbar fusion. Dr. Keenen and his staff accurately diagnosed my problem, dealt with my obstinate insurance company, controlled my pain and arranged for surgery. The surgery, a bilateral SI joint minimally invasive fusion, was performed. The results of the surgery have been life altering; my pain is almost completely reduced and i am now able to live my life, which includes numerous activities i had recently had to abandon due to pain. I highly recommend Dr. Keenen and his staff for back pain issues.

I felt immediate relief after the surgery. I did not need pain meds other than Tylenol after day two.

Six months after lumbar surgery by another doctor, Dr. Keenen correctly diagnosed why I was still not recovering, due to a bone spur, which was then operated on by the other doctor. Almost a year later I still was having lower back pain and again Dr. Keenen quickly pursued this issue, resulting in decompression surgery. I am now finally on the road to full recovery after years of pain and loss of function.

I can't say enough good about Dr. Keenen. I highly recommend him for his high level of skill in diagnostics and neurosurgery and his dedication to and caring for his patients.

Dr Keenan was amazing and fixed my neck

Dr. Keenen and staff are amazing. The difference with the fusion is night and day in regards to pain and movement. So much better!

He is very caring and makes you feel welcome. He strives for the best care for you.

Dr. Keenen was very thorough and explained everything that would take place. The surgery went very well and recovery time was less than expected.

Amazingly positive experience. To maker a long story short, I finally ended up with the right group of doctors, with Dr. Keenen being the last and most important of the puzzle pieces. I had lost a lot of use of my left arm, hand and fingers over the course of a 6 month period. Best decision I made in a long time. Dr. Keenen explained all of my options in detail and I chose to let him go ahead and fix it. As soon as the anesthesia was out of my system, I instantly could feel that things were better.
I had a double disk removal and replacement with a titanium plate installed across 3 vertebrae in my neck.
After 8 weeks of following directions and recovery(and feeling better a little each day), I have never given my choice a second guess.
thank you Dr. Keenen and the entire team.
