Spine Surgery

Mona Pellecchia

I had fallen over cables on the sidewalk and broke my first bone in 70 years - my hip. I needed complete emergency replacement surgery, which was unfortunately done in NJ. My left leg is now shorter than the other side with a hip replacement. A gym rat for 55 years, I started having back pain, which ruined my workouts (kickboxing, weights, running). Dr. Cyril found the problem and relieved the pain. He gave me my life back! He is absolutely wonderful! I trust him completely and that is a miracle!
