I have been a dancer since I was 2 years old. I have had trouble with my knee and went to countless doctors. Each one told me to just stop dancing even though it is my life.

In December 2021, I was in dance class and something happened to my knee. I could not walk much less dance. I was sent an angel named Dr. Nawabi and HSS. Dr. Nawabi asked me if I am a dancer and he told me I will dance again for many years to come. I literally cried tears of joy. He even called us during his holiday vacation abroad to check on me.

My surgery on January 18, 2022. It could have been a scary event, but Dr. Nawabi and the entire staff at HSS were amazing. I felt like they were all treating me the way they would their own family member. Through the 4 months of recovery, they held my hand the whole time.

I dance 4 times a week now for hours. I have performed many times and I shine because of HSS. It is the best place on earth and I am forever grateful.
