Patient Reviews
Aug 21, 2024
I was apprehensive about having surgery on my back (and put off seeking help for longer than I needed). Once I spoke with Dr. Elia, and he laid out what my disk problems were and how he could help me get back to functioning, I knew I had made the right choice. Surgery and follow-up have produced results better than I could have hoped for (and have cemented my 'right choice' decision).Dr. Elia and his wonderful staff are top notch!!!
