Jeff, I've seen both Lauryssen and Johnson with clients. Both are very well respected 'heavy hitters'. I don't know how they are for t-spine issues. You mentioned Regan on another post. If you are having VATS... Regan wrote the book on it.

Good luck!

Mark

Jeff, if you go back to Regan , please ask him about his complication rate, i was not the only one on here that he injured. I wouldn't even have minded if he had owned up to it. Accidents happen. He should have been following up with me in the hospital as well.

you said you saw him with clients; did they have surgeries by either of the doctors, what type of surgery; and if so how did it turn out?
