I really didn’t have any fears. I had heard Dr. Hochschuler was the best, so I prayed about it and was at peace going in to the surgery. I am grateful Dr. Hochschuler took a special interest in my case since I was so high risk. No one in Mississippi would take the chance to fix my back, but thankfully Dr. Hochschuler did, and was successful.
