By early 2015, my lower back pain had become so intense that I couldn't walk one city block without keeling over in excruciating pain. Dr. Girardi diagnosed the problem, then performed decompression and laminectomy surgery. Dr. Waldman followed up with aspiration of a couple synovial cysts and later that year I completed the TCS NYC Marathon with no discomfort whatsoever.
This year, 2023, will mark my 26th consecutive TCS NYC Marathon and 77th across 49 states and Washington DC.
Forever grateful to Drs. Girardi, Waldman and all at HSS.
Thank you!
