Nov 30, 2021
Dr. Metcalf installed Harrington rods when I broke my back at L2 vertebrae, he was assisted by Dr. Adams he was in Columbus GA at the time. I was 39 years old and am now 69 years old, so I would say he and Dr. Adams was the best, and I'm sure Dr. Metcalf still is. I would love to find out if any old , maybe scanned records still exist of that procedure... Best Regards, Thomas J Brown Jr
