Patient Reviews
Jun 08, 2022
My daughter had severe scoliosis and has been seeing Dr. Samora since 2017. She had a complicated spinal fusion surgery in 2018 and her quality of life immediately improved. She is now almost 18 and is the healthiest she has ever been. She has zero restrictions and does heavy weight lifting, yoga and works full-time. Yes, she has also had to work hard but without Dr. Samora she would never have had the opportunity. (Her degree of curvature was at almost 75%) a few days prior to surgery. We went for her annual follow-up today and her spine is in almost perfect alignment. Thank you Dr. Samora for everything!
