Suffering From Severe Pain And No Mobility Due Discs Compressing On Nerve Root. How To Continue Treatment?

I need to find a Neurosurgeon in Texas (Dallas County/Kaufman County areas) that accept patients with Medicaid. My adult daughter is suffering from L4 & L5 discs compressing on her nerve root and has been in severe pain and non mobil since August 6th. Can you suggest some doctors that could see her and help?
