Dr. Max Greig

After suffering for over two decades from a severe lower spinal injury, and countless appointments with other orthopedic surgeons, I visited Dr Max.

He was never in a rush and spent a considerable amount of time talking about the procedure and what to expect following surgery.

Within a week I was on his operating table having back surgery which entailed titanium supports along with a number of screws, to separate and secure my lower spine, in the "L" region.

Recovery, as Doc Max fully explained, took several month. Understandably so considering the severity of the surgery along with all the years of swollen muscle and nerves, and the new body parts.

At approximately 6 months the transformation was remarkable. Now at 10 months, recovery continues.

I still need to be careful not to do anything stupid, as I was continually reminded time and again by the physio therapist, I affectionately referred to as Colonel Klink. But I have not been this pain-free since the late nineties.
