LIFE SHOULDN’T
BE PAINFUL.
When neck and back pain alter
your quality of life, there are options.
For Judy Clark, back pain had become a part
of daily life. Even walking through a shopping
mall was a difficult task—she would have to
sit and give her back a rest every five minutes.
While the pain’s severity changed by the day,
it was always there, and for 25 years,
Judy accepted it.
Relief for life
After sending her MRI results to Laser Spine
Institute, Judy learned she was a candidate for
minimally invasive endoscopic spine surgery.
She and her husband agreed she should forgo
a spinal fusion that was likely to leave a large
scar and require a lengthy recovery time.
Finally, she made a life-changing decision.
Instead, they made the trip to Laser Spine
Institute in Tampa, Fla.
“I couldn’t live like this anymore,” she says.
“[The pain] had really diminished my quality of life.” “Everyone we talked to made me feel like I was
their only patient,” she says. “It’s a very, very
nice facility, and the people are wonderful.”
The cause of her pain
Judy, of Youngsville, Pa., can point to the
moment more than 25 years ago when her
pain began. She was home with her 6-monthold daughter, and when she bent over to pick
the little girl up, she couldn’t stand up again.
“I had to crawl to the phone,” she recalls.
She sought out chiropractic care, and while
the visits often provided immediate relief, it

would soon fade, leaving Judy right where she
started—in pain.
Finally, she decided it was time to reclaim
her life. She went to her physician for some
tests and, ultimately, an MRI, which showed a
herniated disc. Judy’s physician referred her
to a surgeon in Pittsburgh, but after a family
friend recommended Laser Spine Institute,
Judy decided to call them for a second opinion.

She learned the team of specialists at Laser
Spine Institute had performed thousands
of procedures to relieve pain caused by a
herniated disc, as well as spinal stenosis,
sciatica, bone spurs and spinal arthritis.
Even more important, the surgery was
successful. In fact, Judy could feel the
difference the same day of her outpatient
procedure.
“The doctor gave me detailed postsurgical
instructions, and I was sure to follow his advice,”
Judy says. “That weekend after my surgery,
I was out walking. It was unbelievable.”
Nearly two years after her endoscopic spine
surgery at Laser Spine Institute, Judy says she
is happily pain-free. “I feel the best I’ve felt
since I was a teenager.”
And she’s taking advantage of every moment.
She started her own quilting business. She
joined a gym and exercises regularly and, as a
result, has lost 16 pounds.
“I go for long walks with no pain,” she says.
“Normal everyday things were painful. Now,
I think, ‘I get to get up and clean today!’
Because I don’t hurt.”
