I a failed lumbar surgery L3-S1 by Choll Kim in 2022 I was left worst off numb from the waist down in horrible pain! I had five opinions from different Dr's which none were interested in my case! until I found Dr. Leary. I had a revision two weeks ago and already can tell the difference. As one other patient put it he is a miracle worker! thanks to her words I took a step of faith! I will be greatful to him all the days of my life Thank you Dr . Leary and Tracy!
