Life Changing

Dr. Braxton and his team are wonderful! I lived with back pain for years and finally saw Dr. Braxton when the pain became so debilitating that I could barely walk to my mailbox and back. After trying both physical therapy and injections we decided surgery was the best option to relieve my pain. Not only did the surgery go very smoothly, but Dr. Braxton's bedside manner is superb, his team was able to answer any questions I had in the weeks following surgery quickly, and now I am fully recovered and have my life back. I did not suffer any complications and you would never even know I had to have surgery. Thank you so much to Dr. Braxton and his team for changing my life!
