found the following........
"I lived with excruciating back-and-leg pain for years. Two months ago, Dr. Schiffer performed the new HydroDiscectomy procedure to treat my condition. Since then, beginning immediately after the procedure, I've been pain-free. I'm so impressed with Dr. Schiffer and this minimally invasive procedure that I carry the doctor's business cards with me and pass them out to anyone who's suffering from back-and-leg pain."
