Anyone had something like this i am new to all this

This is all new to me, a little over a month now i suffered a fall and have now found out that i will be needing surgery but dont know who will be doing it or what kind because the first ortho doctor stated he was not touching me that its was out of his scope after the MRI results came in. The MRI stated this.
c3-4 right posterolateral disc herniation and spondylosis makedly encroach upon the medial aspect of the right foramen and abut the right vental aspect of the cord.
c5-6 bulging of the disc and spondylosis abut the ventral surface of the cord and result in marked bilateral neural foraminal narrowing.
c6-7 moderate disc narrowing is observed with adjacent endplate reaction left posterolateral disc protusion and spondylosis abut the left aspect of the cord and result in marked left neural foraminal encroachment moderate right neural foraminal narrowing os observed secondary to spondylosis.
c7-t1 moderate bilateral arthropathy is observed with mild foraminal narrowing, left greater than right.


Has anyone had the same or close to this, what happened and what kind of surgery doe this take. recovery? working again? any info would be great
