Comments:
They called in a surgeon immediately for him on a holiday weekend and had him in surgery before we got home (it was a 3 hour drive for us). Called us twice a day every day he was there with updates, was super thorough with aftercare instructions including a demonstration of bladder expressing, and answered my questions about medication adjustments quickly. I feel they were super reasonably priced. We were quoted $6k-$8k and with how severe his case was (stage 5, a severely ruptured disc that was compressing multiple areas of the spinal cord), we definitely expected it to be on the higher end of that. He healed super well and is now wobbly walking!
