Dr. Boyd explained the procedure clearly and made me feel safe and confident in making an informed decision. I’m not looking forward to the pain or the physical therapy afterward, but that’s the price we pay to heal. In the end, we each have to decide if the pain is worth the quality of life that follows—and for me, it is.
