Sciatica Treatment for McDonough, GA
Board-certified neurosurgical care for McDonough residents living with sciatica. Same-week appointments, MRI reviews, and minimally invasive options when surgery is right for you.
Why McDonough patients choose Nova for sciatica
If you live in McDonough, Henry County, and you've been dealing with sciatica, your first instinct may be to look toward a downtown Atlanta hospital system. Many of our McDonough patients have quietly made a different choice: Nova Brain and Spine of GA, the practice of Dr. Jerry Walters II and Dr. Marcus Stephens, headquartered 10 miles away in Hampton. The trip is shorter, the parking is free, and the surgeon who reviews your MRI is the same surgeon who will perform your procedure if one is needed.
Targeted treatment for radiating leg pain caused by lumbar nerve root compression. For McDonough residents, we structure care around three principles: get you evaluated quickly, exhaust non-surgical options first, and — if surgery is right for you — use the smallest, least-disruptive approach that will give you lasting relief.
Symptoms we hear most from McDonough patients
- Radiating leg pain
- Numbness or tingling in leg/foot
- Burning sensation
- Weakness in leg
- Pain worsening with sitting
