Why did you choose Rothman?
My first spinal surgery was with Rothman back in 2009. I wanted to incorporate a healthier lifestyle, and my brother suggested the physicians at the Orthopedic Integrative Health Center.
Describe your experience.
The Orthopedic Integrative Health Center helped me modify my lifestyle in a way that made sense. The physician and her team were keyed into what my specific needs were.
What would you recommend to patients considering treatment?
I went to get a second opinion, and they asked, “why are you here—you have Rothman.” That should be a recommendation in itself!
Do you have a great Rothman Story?
