best spine surgeons in Louisiana?

So I have been dealing with chronic spine problems for about 10 years. I've had a cervical fusion, a few outpatient procedures, over 20 ESI's, and countless rounds of physical therapy and chiropractor visits. I feel like my doctor doesn't really give a shite about my health any more. They dont offer much hope or suggestions and I'm steadily getting worse.
I think i need to change doctors. Who do you recommend and why?

What are your symptoms?
If your only symptom is pain dont get any more fricking surgery
I wouldnt let a surgeon anywhere near my back unless I couldnt walk

That seems like a foolish position to take. Are you opposed to western medicine?

I'm in the middle of this now after suffering for decades
dr fautheree at the spine place in towne center is my current dr and I just started another round of ESI with dr patel
I haven't tried a burn yet but it's the next step

I agree, chiropractors are the real experts when it comes to spines

No, i just know that back surgery for pain has a high fail rate.
If you have a true fixable radiculopathy thats another story

the neck surgery actually helped a lot. all the numbness, weakness and tingling in my hands went away. i have another herniated disc in my neck that causes pain spasms and headaches. i have a herniated and a bulging disc in my middle back that causes numbness and sharp stabbing pain. i have 2 bulging and one herniated in my lumbar that causes intense local pain and radiating pain, numbness and tingling down both legs but worse on the left.

I second this. He did a 4 level fusion on my neck 6 weeks ago. I couldn't be happier with the results

What kind?
Posted on 7/22/17 at 2:00 pm to wasteland
North American Spine. At least according to this site's ads.
In all seriousness, Dr. Scrantz has a pretty good reputation between both sides of the Bar (plaintiffs/insurers).
