"Dr. Kager performed a lumbar laminectomy in 2019; pain returned 5 months later. Dr. Kager performed a posterior lumbar interbody fusion in 2020. Pain did not go away. Dr. Kager told me there had been some shifting and suggested I see his colleague Dr. Hernandez. Dr. Hernandez informed me that half of my screws were loose & sent me for scoliosis x-rays. I never heard from Dr. Hernandez again. When I called the office to complain about no follow-up I then rec'd a call from a Penn Medicine concierge that Dr. Kager has now referred me to another doctor in Phila., who, after meeting with him, suggested I have the screws and rods removed, which I did in 2021. I agree with other reviewers about the 3 minute appointments with Dr. Kager. Never once did he say "Do you have any questions?" I found him to be curt and abrupt. After the 3 minute appointments, he would stand up and the appt. was over. After my 2 original unsuccessful surgeries I still have lower back pain, but I have decided ...
to live with it. No more back surgeries for me! "
