Dear Dr. Garr,
I want you to know how grateful I am for the back surgery you performed on Nov. 25, 2019. I had had a long series of misdiagnosed reasons for hip and leg pain. Dr. Auld urged me to see you, and I am so happy that he did. When I worried about my age, I found your response perfect. “You are fit, you are active. you can have the surgery or sit and be bored the rest of your life.” Well, I am not bored, thanks to your excellent surgery. I thought you might get a chuckle out of these pictures of an 81-year-old to whome you gave her active life back. THANK YOU.
