Prof. Düx hat mithilfe des MrgFus-Verfahrens ein Osteoid-Osteom unseres Sohnes entfernen können. Die Aufnahme in der Praxis war sehr freundlich, die Gespräche ausführlich, die Behandlung sehr professionell. Ich kann diese Praxis nur empfehlen.

Prof. Düx erklärt geduldig und nimmt sich sehr viel Zeit. Auf besondere Empfehlung kam ich zu ihm und kann ihn ausnahmslos wärmstens empfehlen. Der Anreiseweg von mehr als 300km ist mir daher nicht zu weit. Schon wenn man die Praxis betritt, merkt man sofort, dass eine sehr harmonische Atmosphäre herrscht. Gutes Terminmanagement. Es wurde bei all meinen Besuchen besonderen Wert darauf gelegt, die Wartezeit so kurz wie möglich zu halten. Das Personal ist stets freundlich und verständnisvoll.
Hohe Fachkompetenz, sehr ausführliches und informatives Gespräch. Erklärt sehr verständlich und nimmt sich viel Zeit.

Im April 19 habe ich mich zu Verödung der Facetten per Mrgfus entschieden. Das Vorgespräch mit Prof. Düx war ausführlich. Mir wurde gesagt, dass die Methode bei ca. 90% der Patienten hilft und die Chancen bei mir gut stehen. Die ungewollte Nervenschädigung der Beinnerven wurde als praktisch unmöglich dargestellt. "Sind Knochen dazwischen ". Leider hatte die Behandlung schlimme Folgen. Meine LWS Schmerzen sind unverändert und dazu habe ich nun neuropatische Schmerzen in den Beinen. Nie wieder.
