Dr. Lon Lutz, MD

I have seen Dr. Lutz over the past 3 years for chronic low back pain. I had epidurals done elsewhere that didnt work or only helped a short time. Dr. Lutz did some diagnostic blocks and found that the pain was coming from the facet joints and that epidurals wouldnt help. He did some RF & that takes care of the problem for 18 months or so. I had to have it repeated once, and now it is good. I can do a lot of my old activities.

Went to see Lutz for a spinal epidural. He lied to me and told me I needed to have branch blocks or the insurance would not cover it. This was a lie. Against my request and my Dr's order, he was steering me into Radio Frequency tx (cost exceeds $10,000) After the branch block I learned what he was doing and complained and stopped tx prior to the RF tx so I avoided the major cost. I'm still getting bills from him for almost $2000. The epidural I was supposed to get would have cost me around $100 ...
