I am one year post-op from T8-ilium posterior fusion with instrumentation and L4/L5, L5/S1 anterior fusion. The procedure required two separate surgeries, four days apart. Pre-op I was in terrible pain and my daily routine was severely compromised. Pretty much immediately after surgery I was pain-free and I consider the procedure completely successful. I can not recommend Dr. A enough. My life has completely changed for the better and I am back to work and almost at 100% of my goal.

Dr. A and her team are fantastic and thorough. She was the first person in years to take time and listen to me and find out exactly what was going on with me. She is a great surgeon.

She is excellent at explaining her insights and recommendations, uses her resources well, and is a very skilled surgeon. She has a calm demeanor that puts you at ease and instills confidence that she will provide you with good care. Further, she takes the time to establish rapport and makes treatment a collaborative effort.

Dr. Ananthakrishnan performed scoliosis surgery on me in 2011. I have had much pain relief from degenerative disc disease, arthritis, correction of scoliosis to the degree possible with rods. She is very thorough, caring, and proficient in her expert work as a surgeon in her care and evaluation of one prior to surgery, following one to watch the progression of the problem and deciding when one needs surgery. She also is diligent to watch for improvement or stabilization of a process.

Bright, Smart, and Talented. My surgery did not go as planned the damage was far worse than anticipated. She came up with a solution and executed it. I went from debilitating pain to being able to function again. Means a lot i can play with my 6 year old without writhing in pain. I can work pretty much as normal. I try to avoid neck trauma, but I am very pleased with my results.

I am a 45 year old female who has had excruciating back pain for 6 years due to scoliosis and spondylitis. I choose Dr. A after many surgical opinions. Dr. A is incredibly down to earth and friendly,,. She truly doesn't know how wonderful she is..,, She is a miracle worker! I am completely pain free! I do not live in Atlanta so it was rough but I would travel to the ends of the earth to make sure she was my surgeon!
