Additional Patient Feedback
“A year ago today before the world shut down, I limped into the IBJ surgery center in Glenview. Five hours later I walked out pain free! Dr. Gary Shapiro performed a Laminotomy on my spine. Before the surgery I could not walk a block. Within a month, I was walking three miles a day and playing golf shortly thereafter. Dr. Shapiro did an amazing job and I am so grateful for his amazing talent! Bravo!” – Marc S.
“I have returned to Dr. Shapiro because of the fine result from the first surgery he did on my back. I was not certain what was wrong this time, but after consultation, Dr. Shapiro gave me his best course of action advice. At this time, surgery is not indicated but the injection he gave me was painless and is helping. Both Dr. Shapiro and his staff are professional, personable, and always available to answer any of my questions. I highly recommend him. -Terri R.”
“Thank you all so much for the incredible care you provided to me. My back is so much better!
