Deciding whether to allow your daughter to have surgery on her spine can be a difficult one. It is a decision that you can only make with your family and your daughter's doctor, however.
In order to make things clearer in your mind regarding the necessity of the surgery, you can ask the surgeon several questions. They include:
Why do you think this surgery is needed?
What will happen if the surgery is not done?
What are the complications that could occur if the surgery is done?
How many times have you done this surgery?
How have your other patients done with this surgery?
What, if any, follow up surgeries might be necessary?
How long will the recovery take?
