Mary,
Ditto on the 2nd opinion. Unfortunately, different doctors differ in their opinions of the best surgery for your circumstances. If 2 or 3 doctors, well versed in ALL spine surgeries are of the same opinion, then you have your answer. If not, more investigation is needed. Logic doesn't always win but it usually makes sense.
