Surgery

I don't know how everyone else feels but personally I have to have have complete trust in my surgeon. I was fortunate to have one of the top leading orthopedic surgeons in Hamikton and I found that I was confident and relaxed for every surgery he did and my healing time was not as long as I anticipate. I have to have more surgery and I'm hoping this new surgeon meets my expectations ( unfortunately I lost my surgeon a few years back due to cancer). Here's hoping for good results. GOD bless anyone who has to have surgery because of RA

The development of advanced cancer surgery procedures leads to higher survival rate and improve the quality of life. The cancer survival patients have been back to their work normally as before they were.
