Are you having surgery? Here are 3 things to prep beforehand:

✔️ Review your medications. Speak with your clinical team or surgeon about which medications you should stop or continue taking before surgery.

✔️Pack for your hospital stay. Bring the essentials that will make your stay easier — comfortable clothes, a charger, ID, insurance card, and anything else you may need.

✔️Prepare your home for recovery. Set things up ahead of time so when you return home, your focus can be on what matters most: rest and recovery.

A little preparation before surgery can make the recovery process easier to navigate. Knowing what to expect and planning ahead can help you feel more confident going into your procedure.

Before recommending surgery, we sit down with every patient for an honest conversation. Here are 3 things we discuss before you ever consider the OR:

✔️ Surgery is not the first option. It should only come after other paths have been explored

✔️ Success looks different for everyone, so expectations are unique to each individual

✔️ Recovery is a process, not a switch. Healing takes time, and surgery may not resolve everything right away

Being fully informed is integral to feeling confident in your care. Consistency in follow-up is key to successful outcomes.

We're still smiling at our unforgettable time at the Jesse Gerhard Memorial Foundation golf outing! Perfect weather, a great cause, and a beautiful community of fire fighters, first responders, family, and friends!

It was great connecting with Dr. Desousa of Provident PT & Rehab and our friends from Metro Physical & Aquatic Therapy and Groth Pain & Spine.

We'd like to personally thank Lynn and Bruce Gerhard for inviting us in with open arms, Casey Gerhard for your masterful work pulling it all together, and Amanda at Mission Apparel for making our swag come true!

You guys are all amazing. Thank you to Casey, Bruce, Lynn, and all their friends and family for sharing such a special experience with us.

Work hard. Play hard. Gerhard. ❤️

"I walked out of the hospital pain free the next day. Dr. Nkrumah called me following up everyday for the first few days. This was the kind of experience we see on TV doctor shows in terms of attention, time and concern except this was real. Amazing. If you’ve been told you need spinal surgery or any other neurosurgery, I urge you to talk to him."

Our patients and their incredible testimonials say more than we ever could.

Thank you, each and every one. You truly honor us with your care.

39 days, 48 teams, 104 matches, and the # 1 best sport on earth!

We are so grateful to see the in person! Philly to Hotlanta and back home in New York, it was truly our dream come true.

From split-second neural processing to balance, coordination, and focus under pressure, every sprint, pass, and tactical decision was a beautiful communication between the brain, spine, nerves, and muscles. What a phenomenal tournament and unforgettable World Cup from start to finish.
