Degenerative Disc Disease

John Di Russo

The staff at HSS proved outstanding during my stay. I don't have much experience in this medical world, but as a adult with life experiences, it's clear why the hospital is world-renowned as I progress at home with much improvement already. The laminectomy at my lower lumbar was performed on a Friday afternoon, and by Tuesday I was walking without the pain I suffered from for the past 4 years. Going forward, I expect my daily life will get back to a pace without pain and that is the direct result from the a great care provided by Dr. Farmer. To the HSS staff, thank you.
