Dr. Palejwala is an excellent surgeon. I fell and hurt my neck so badly that I needed surgery two days after entering Long Beach Memorial. At first I refused to be operated on but through indepth discussions with Dr, Palejwala she told me I had a choice; complete recovery or risk having paralysis or worse. I decided to proceed although I was very nervous about the operation. Before the operation I was near tears and asked Dr. Palejwala to please take care of me. She promised that she would and she ensured me everything would be okay. Dr. Palejwala fused my C3, C4, C5, C6 and partial C2 and C7.
As she promised, everything turned out okay. it's been a year since my surgery and everything she told me has come to fruition. My left arm regained strength, the numbness all but vanished, and my neck and shoulders are strong and I'm 99% back!
I attribute my amazing recovery to the skill and personal care of Dr. Palajwala. I'm very grateful for Dr. Palejwala and I recommend her to anyone that wants a skilled surgeon that provides a personal caring touch to the situation.
