Dr. Eldan Eichbaum SPINAL CORD SURGERY

Joan Bobrink of Fremont was faced with “cervical stenosis and myelopathy.” This severe pinching of the spinal cord caused numbness and difficulty walking. Neurosurgeon Eldan Eichbaum, MD, knew what to do. He performed a complex but successful surgery to relieve the pressure on her spinal cord. “They were all so patient with me,” said Joan, “and I'm now back to regular activities. I am very, very thankful to Dr. Eichbaum and the Washington Outpatient Rehab Center team for treating, healing and strengthening the muscles around my neck and spine.”
