I would like to Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Dr. Daphne Oreilly-Flores, Dr. Miles Day, and Dr Sergiy Nesterenko. I had a microdiscectomy L4-L5-S1 procedure roughly a month ago. I was unable to walk and needed assistance. Once I woke up after the surgery I could walk once again with hardly no pain at all. Today I continue to recover and push forward to a full recovery, but most of all my prayers were answered by these gifted individuals. Once again THANK YOU dearly from the Lopez Family

Dr. Nesterenko is utterly amazing! When I was referred to him, I presented with a multitude of quite complicated problems. I had multiple MRIs, multiple EMGs, two CTs and x-rays. Each specialist had a differing opinion based on the images. When Dr. Nesterenko walked in, I pointed to the computer monitor and asked: "Can you make sense of all this?" He looked at me very sympathetically and said: "Well... let's do it together." This is the kind of person and surgeon he is. He proceeded to go through the images and tests, explaining the problems with each one. He took out his pen and drew a diagram. He said: "I want you to think of me as a sniper. I'm going to take a precise shot. If I can't get that shot, I'm not going to take it." After one more MRI, he walked into the exam room and thanked me for doing that, and thus giving him a better picture. No doctor, specialist, surgeon, etc., has ever thanked me for anything. Again, this the kind of person he is. He explained to me that he could do a discectomy between C5-C6 with a fusion and he made certain that I understood perfectly the percentages for a good recovery. Before I agreed to go ahead with it, I asked him: "Doctor, do you have your precise shot?" His face lit up and he said: "Yes, I do!" I had the surgery a week later. It went beautifully and the recovery is going very well, too!
I cannot thank Dr. Nesterenko and his team enough. He is an amazing person and an amazing surgeon!

Amazing Care - Highly recommend
Dr. Nesterenko and his staff provided exceptional care from the first phone call through the Post Op visit. Everyone on his team is compassionate and cares about you as an individual. After six months of pain and multiple doctor visits, PA Atabong and Dr. Nesterenko were the first medical professionals to identify the root cause and provide a solution. I am pain free and medication free thanks to this office. They were an answer to prayers and I highly recommend them!

Dr. Nesterenko performed a very extensive back surgery on my back on Oct. 15, 2018. Discs were removed from L2, L3, and L4 and then screws were inserted on L2, L3, L4, and L5 with a rod on each side of the spine for stability. The discs were removed through two 3-inch incisions on my left side and the screws were put in with 8 1-inch incisions on my back, 4 on each side of my spine. It was a 6 hour surgery.
He is very professional, personable, and does a great job of explaining things and taking the time to answer all of my questions. My only regret is that I didn't get this done sooner.

I would recommend Dr. Nesterenko in a heartbeat!
Dr. Nesterenko is an amazing surgeon and was so easy to talk to. He was very thorough in explaining what my options, the benefits and the risks would be. He included my family in the process and we appreciated that so much. Dr. Nesterenko has a great team of people and a great reputation. The procedure I had saved my future. And now after my six week follow up, I am healing up very well because I had a great surgeon. I am so incredibly thankful for a chance to live my life without as many limitations as I had before. Dr. Nesterenko is incredible and I would definitely seek his care again if needed and would suggest the same to anyone else.

He has been very careful to order enough x-rays, CT and MRI to be sure of what he is seeing and to make the most common sense approach to a treatment plan.

Great spinal surgeon
I had my second post-op visit today. Dr. Nesterenko is a great spinal surgeon! After trying optional methods, he did surgery on my L-4 thru S-1. Before surgery I was almost non-functional on walking and standing. My surgery took care of those problems. I’m so thankful my PCP recommended him. He and his staff are fantastic. I highly recommend him for any spinal problems!

Great doctor. Dr Nesterenko took a very conservative approach to my back issues. He had me try a multitude of alternative treatments before surgery. Very approachable and really cares about his patients. Does a very good job of explaining what the surgery will entail and the pros and cons associated with the surgery. Surgery corrected all the issues I had before surgery and relieve all my previous symptoms. I would recommend Dr Nesterenko to anyone having back issues.

Dr Nesterenko and PA'S Edwin Guerro and Sixtus Attabong provided excellent care for me as I went through the process of deciding to have a spinal fusion. I was especially grateful for the X-rays and MRI's explained and many questions answered thoroughly. I visited other surgeons before I made my decision and 6 months after surgery my pain has lessened greatly and my activity level has increased. I am satisfied with my experience and I recommend Dr. Nesterenko and all of the Grace Clinic staff to others in a similar situation and needing surgery.

I was referred to Dr Nesterenko by the Lubbock Spine Institute. An appt was scheduled very promptly. He recommended back surgery for L3 and L4....surgery was scheduled promptly. It has been 7 weeks and I no longer have to take pain pills. He and his staff are very efficient and take the time to talk with you! I highly recommend Dr Nesterenko for any spine issues! Thank you to him and his staff for the care and concern!!
