I have been suffering with disc problems for over 15 years and have had 2 surgeries within the last 5 years for herniated discs. When I met Dr. Bob, I was quickly approaching my third surgery - and possibly a spinal fusion.

I had been to see numerous specialists, with the same prognosis - try physical therapy, and if that doesn't work, I would need surgery. I was in serious pain, unable to work full time and the physical therapy was not helping. I experienced brief relief after trying epidermal shots, but that was not a permanent solution.

A chance encounter with my auto-mechanic led to my initial consultation with Dr. Bob...... and the rest is history!!! After 8 weeks of Vax-D I finally began to experience some relief and now 8 months later, I am able to do all the things I was unable to do for the better part of 2003 - work full time, go for walks, ride a bike, go to the gym.... even go to dinner and a movie.

Thank you Dr. Bob and Vax-D for giving me my life back!!!

Dear Dr. Bob and Staff,

I would like to thank you for all your help. Just 5 months ago I was hardly able to drive to your office for my first visit. I had been in pain for at least 3 years. My MRI revealed that I had herniated discs in my lower back. I was given prescriptions that I just couldn't take. I didn't want to live on medication and I definitely couldn't go on the way I was. One day we heard a commercial for Vax-D on the radio. So we started research it.

As I started to research, my back was getting worse. I kept thinking I'm only 45 years old, what's going to happen to me when I'm older. So I made a call to your office. After speaking to Maureen I felt that your office just might be the place to help me.

I'm sure you remember me practically crawling into your office. I couldn't even sit in the car for more than 15 minutes without being in pain. Simple things such as putting shoes on was impossible. Well I just want to thank you. Now five months later and I'm feeling really good. Yes it was a commitment for me, 6 days a week in your office for 5 weeks. Now I come in 3 times a week for physical therapy and heat treatments. The reward is being able to take a drive to visit my daughter who lives 2 hours away and be able to walk when I get there.

Thank you for being so sympathetic to my pain and giving me the treatment that has given me the ability to lead a normal life. The Vax-D has helped me get back in the world.

Thank you for all your help.

Dear Dr. Mills and Dr. Hoffman:

I just want to thank you guys for taking care of me. I was in bad shape when I met with you in April. The Fire Department had already approved me for back surgery and I was actively searching for a surgeon, not that I wanted to go under the knife. I had plenty of reservations about surgery and the results. I really had to think about what might happen if I could not fully recover from surgery and would be forced to leave my job as a full duty firefighter. I love doing the job and was very concerned at the thought of my career as a full duty firefighter coming an end.

From the first day I entered the office and talked to Dr. Mills, I felt better. The casual approach made it easy to talk to you guys. Dr. Mills let me try the table after examining my MRI report, even after I explained that I had not approached the FDNY Medical Office for authorization for the treatment. When I did consult the doctors at the Medical Office, they had no idea what Vax-D was. I had to prove my case to them that Vax-D was worth trying before surgery. It took a little doing to get then to approve it, but they eventually did. I was approved for the treatment, but not the rehabilitation that was to follow. The FDNY Medical Staff's function is to get you back to work, not to help you get well. Against my better judgment and yours, the Fire Department put me full duty on June 5th. Unfortunately, I don't make nearly enough money from the Fire Department to pay my mortgage, pay my bills, take care of my wife and son who was born in August, so I had to go right back to my second job, which was concrete work. I was very careful and did everything you told me to do and as of the writing of this letter, have been PAIN FREE. I think it is amazing that the Vax-D treatment is virtually unknown to anyone I speak to. I have become a very vocal advocate of Vax-D to everyone I hear that has back pain. I have your brochure in the kitchen of the firehouse and I make sure people know there might be an option to surgery.

I'm sorry it took so long to write this letter, but I have been working two jobs and helping raise my son and loving every minute of it and I have Vax-D and you guys to thank for that!!!

Sincerely,

Steven Kelly
