I had 2 cervical discs replaced with fusion by Dr Mark Oliver of Ocala Neurosurgical Group. It was 100% successful and I am so glad I had it done. Should have done it a long time ago. A friend of mine had the same thing done by Dr Hill and he also was satisfied. For 2 discs, the operation was a piece of cake - in hospital overnight and in a soft collar for 3 weeks. I don't know how it would be for 5 discs.
