For many years, I was living with horrible, crippling back pain - I could barely walk by the time I came to HSS. I went to see several doctors who could not help with medication - I had been avoiding surgery for years. A surgeon in Israel recommended Dr. Albert, who gave me a new lease on life.
Almost immediately after the surgery, I was on my feet, walking in New York like I used to. I was so comfortable with Dr. Albert, and he gave me so much confidence in the process - it's beyond simple trust. I can't thank him enough.
