I cannot understand the negative reviews.

I came with two herniated discs and spinal stenosis, with symptoms of a numb left leg. Yes, you may need a little patience in the waiting room.

Dr. Fischer was very friendly, examined me thoroughly, immediately prescribed an orthosis and a TENS device, and suggested injections. I have received 2 injections so far and the numbness in my leg is completely gone.

The injections were placed under imaging guidance and he was so quick that it was very well tolerable.

I was also prescribed rehab sports. The front desk staff were equally friendly. For me, a wonderful and thoroughly competent physician.

Dr. Kasem Rami helped me finally get rid of my pain. I have never felt so understood and in good hands with anyone as with him.

He listens, takes his time, and understands exactly what you are going through. Thanks to his help, I can breathe freely again, move, and enjoy life.

I am endlessly grateful to him — without him I would never have found real help. I warmly recommend him to anyone suffering from pain.

My warmest thanks to all staff members at Dr. Kasim Fischer's practice. Everyone is competent, friendly, and helpful in all situations.

Regarding Dr. Fischer: absolutely competent, he takes time for his patients. First, the symptoms are discussed and various tests conducted without any time pressure. Then the necessary treatment plan is explained in detail.

I can highly recommend this practice.

I can only report positive experiences about the doctor. He was very professional from the outset, examined my condition thoroughly, and after just a few treatments I felt a distinct improvement.

The doctor also helped me tremendously in obtaining medical aids (the health insurance originally did not want to cover it).

This is a doctor who truly stands on the patient's side. Highly recommended.

Frequently asked questions, clear answers.

Do I always need surgery for a herniated disc?
Not necessarily. Many herniated discs can initially be treated conservatively. Whether surgery is appropriate depends on symptoms, neurological findings, imaging and the course of the condition.
What documents should I bring?
If available: MRI/CT scans, radiology reports, doctors' letters, surgical reports and a current medication list.
Can I get a second opinion?
A neurosurgical consultation can also help assess an already-recommended therapy or surgical plan.
When should I seek urgent medical attention?
Newly occurring severe paralysis or disturbances of bladder/bowel function must be assessed medically without delay.
Are all procedures minimally invasive?
No. The appropriate procedure depends on diagnosis and individual anatomical conditions. Minimal invasiveness is a goal, but cannot be promised independently of the findings.
How long does recovery take after surgery?
This depends significantly on the type and extent of the procedure, pre-existing conditions and individual recovery. Specific recommendations will be given for your procedure.

Not every MRI finding requires surgery

Many changes in the spine can initially be treated without surgery. Surgery is only recommended when symptoms, neurological findings and imaging match and the expected benefit justifies the individual risks. In certain neurological emergencies, however, prompt surgical treatment may be necessary.

Discuss your findings or get a second opinion?
