Vertebroplasty Testimonial

Irma Nabors was experiencing severe pain in her back for two months. It was not until she visited Dr. Do at Stanford Hospital that she was properly diagnosed with suffering from vertebral compression fractures. At this time she could not walk and was confined to a walker and wheelchair.

Within days of diagnosis, she had the procedure.

Nabors stated, “Vertebroplasty reduced the pain. I could not move the pain was so excruciating.”

Today, Nabors with the help of vertebroplasty has been able to get back her quality of life. “I highly recommend the procedure and hope that my testimonial helps others in a similar situation.”
