Gordon Fraser was diagnosed with spinal stenosis when he was 72 years old and for 6 years he made changes to his lifestyle that would still allow him to participate in many of the activities he enjoyed.

After a 9 hour long car ride to see his son he felt utterly useless when he arrived.  The only relief he felt was when he could find a place to sit down and after the 9 hour return trip he knew something needed to be done.

I said to my wife that something had to be done.  I could not continue life in this state

5 different minimally invasive specialists told Gordon that nothing could be done for him as he was not a good candidate.  The final place that Gordon looked at was Atlantic Spinal Care in Edison NJ. and within a few days time he met with Dr. Liu.  After that appointment, Gordon felt reassured that something could be done to help him.

Charlotte Robinson at one time in her life served in our armed forces and as late as 2006 ran a 26.2 mile marathon. As a lady of great strength and passion for life, it was devastating for her to slowly lose the ability to do the things she loved.

It had gotten to the point where Charlotte was no longer able to function without assistance…

I was in so much pain I had to use a wheel chair for outings and a cane to walk around the house…I was devastated.

Charlotte had tried steroid injections, acupuncture, water exercises, medications and saw a chiropractor but was left feeling worse than before.

One night, as she sat up crying and unable to sleep, she found Atlantic Spinal Care’s website while looking for answers for her pain.

From the first phone call to Antonio to the last phone call with Dr. Liu…all the compassion and professionalism was their.

Karen contacted ASC in the same state as many other people who contact us; in pain, frustrated and wondering if there was any way she would ever get back to her old life. Being from out-of-state and having never flown, she admittedly was nervous about making the trip to come to New Jersey and have us care for her, but after many conversations with ASC’s Chief Surgeon Dr. Liu, she was convinced that ASC was the place for her to finally get her old life back.
