"I couldn’t really run after them without getting winded. Whenever we were walking any place, my back would be so painful that I’d be able to walk for about maybe 10 to 15 minutes and then I’d have to sit down and or like lean on something because of how painful it was. [After surgery] we go on walks and we ride bikes and I we go kayaking. So it’s a lot of fun."

Patient testimonial reported by KTIV News

"I was denied medical care because of my weight. Now I continue to be in pain everyday can barely work. My wife has to help me get dressed some days. I would recommend looking else where for medical care."
