When I came to Dr. Melamed, I was in such horrible pain I could barely move. I mean, I was literally crawling, and it was affecting every part of my life. I couldn’t do anything.
Here I am a little over three months later. I have absolutely no pain. It is the most miraculous thing, that I had come in so much pain and I don’t have pain anymore. He’s a wonderful surgeon. I would recommend to be very highly.
