"No leg pain at all. It is like a miracle! I just can't believe it. I am going back to work on Saturday. The pain in my legs went away the next day after surgery."
"I didn't have any pain during the surgery. I went home a couple hours after my surgery. The pain in my arm is gone. I was up and moving around the next day."
"The surgery cured me. I have had virtually no pain at all, with the exception of the fact that my throat is a little sore. I am 81 years old and I've seen too many doctors and Dr. Ramsey is the first one who has ever called me at home (to check on me.) "
