Gary shares his journey from living with chronic back pain to reclaiming his passion for the sports he loves. Over a decade, his intermittent back pain gradually worsened, eventually leaving him in constant discomfort. Despite trying every alternative to avoid surgery, his condition deteriorated to the point where his physical therapist and chiropractor urged him to seek surgical intervention.
Gary’s fears about surgery were alleviated by Dr. Tien at The Center, who assured him that the procedure was routine and would restore his quality of life. Post-surgery, Gary felt stronger than ever and was able to return to the river, snowboarding, and enjoying all his favorite activities, completely pain-free.
