Spinal Fusion Surgery

I highly recommend Dr. Sheha and his team. At 83 years old, this surgery has truly given me my life back.

Patricia Perruccio

My experience with Dr. Sheha, HSS Stamford, and the entire care team was truly outstanding. For more than a year, I suffered from debilitating pain and underwent physical therapy and pain management treatments with little relief.

Dr. Sheha performed my spine surgery on March 6, 2026, and I am incredibly grateful to say that I am now completely pain-free. Since my surgery, I have returned to work, resumed water aerobics, and even planted a vegetable garden this spring.

Dr. Sheha is not only an exceptional surgeon, but also sincere, compassionate, and personable. He has a remarkable ability to connect with his patients and make them feel cared for every step of the way.

I highly recommend him and his team. At 83 years old, this surgery has truly given me my life back.
