Patient Reviews
Nov 10, 2024
Valentine’s Day 1992, our three year old daughter woke up complaining of her throat hurting. Upon trying to stand, she collapsed. She was seen at a local emergency room and told they could not find a cause the symptoms. We were referred to a neurologist at then St John’s . We were seen by Dr. Denis Altman. After an MRI and exam Dr. Altman diagnosed our daughter with cervical transverse myelitis. The days following were spent in the ICU. Dr. Altman was always available to answer questions. Each time he saw her, he would address her as “my little darling”. Three weeks later we were transferred to Cardinal Glennon for rehab. The ability to sit and walk was a dream and our constant prayer request. Although we were in the care of the Cardinal Glennon physiatrist , Dr. Altman continued to follow our daughter’s progress. Three weeks later she was discharged with orthotics and a walker. Today she is a 36 year old mom of four and has her BSN. We will be forever grateful to Dr. Altman.
