Review by Mary ***** April 1, 2026

5/5
I requested a spinal anesthesia for a total hip replacement. Dr. Kuchena was informative, professional and very pleasant. Altho not routinely requested for this type of surgery, he was very amenable. I have no memory of the spinal needle even being inserted, I was already out. I had no post op headache, no nausea or vomiting, not one single side effect. Amazingly talented physician.
