Dr. Woodson, I can’t thank you enough for “fixing me” and always giving me VIP treatment. You have given me the gift to chase after my rugrats without any pain. Luckily I can still outrun them now, but maybe not in ten years when I’ll really need my wheels! Being able to wrestle with my boys and simply do a puzzle on the ground means the world to me and no I can do that without any hesitation. I am forever grateful to you.
