Hi Anna we live in the GR mich area also and was wondering if you could tell a little bit more about your scoliosis.

How big was the curve?

How much reduction did you get?

Why the repair job?

Name of doctor?

Thanks for any more info you could give.

How big was the curve? my curve at time of surgery was 95L degrees and about 50T degrees
I had previously gone to university or Michigan but was NOT happy with them

How much reduction did you get? my curves are down to T33 L30 degrees

Why the repair job? I fell a few times after I got home and a screw popped out

Name of doctor? my primary surgeon is Dr.Jeff Cassidy and he works with Dr.Halanski on larger surgeries
