"Second Surgery - Pain Reduction First of all, I am from CANADA. Yes, it is possible to have back/orthopedic surgery in the United States. I did not hesitate contacting Dr. Prada and his clinic once again for my second surgery. Michelle is excellent in her position as Dr. Prada’s medical administrator - efficient, courteous, knowledgeable, organized, and readily available to answer your questions ..."

"I was informed that I needed back surgery. Checked local(within 2.5 hours) surgeons. The one that came highly recommended wanted to do a 2 level fusion. I explored my options and found Dr. Prada through a physician friend. The rest is history. Love the respect and care that is give to the patient even though I was coming in from WV to Tampa for surgery. They (Michelle Young) directed me as to ..."

"From the moment I made my appointment and stepped foot in the door to the continued care post-op, I have received nothing but great service from the staff and Dr. Prada. I was provided options for procedures and knew exactly what would happen throughout the whole process beginning, during and end. They set me up for success for recovery and were so supportive. His experience is extensive, staff is ..."

"Dr. Prada recently performed a minimally invasive surgery on my back. Before the operation, I couldn't stand for too long and couldn’t walk more than a few blocks. I traveled 2,700 miles from Central America to Tampa, Fl to get help from Dr. Prada, and I would do it again. He and his staff are absolutely number 1! Just 4 weeks after the procedure, my life is back to normal. I am very happy we found ..."

I’ve always been someone to stick it out and avoid having a procedure done if I could, but I was concerned in a few years my pain would impact my life and my future adventures with my growing family. Being weary about the situation, I went to see Dr. Prada about ..."

"Dr. Stefan Prada was recommended to me for a second opinion after I had a car wreck and needed neck/back surgery. I am soooo thankful that he was because I knew after (really before) the first appointment consultation was over that HE was not only the best choice but the only choice of whom I trusted my surgery with. His vast knowledge, experience, accolades, raw talent, and personable demeanor were ..."

"Dr. Prada was recommended to me by two prior patients. I was scheduled for mine locally in IL, but after getting a second opinion from Dr. Prada, I traveled 1200 miles to get my less invasive surgery the next week. Communication with Michelle was incredible and staff was outstanding. Their process through the pre, day of, and post-op was perfectly organized. I felt very comfortable the whole time. ..."
