Patient Reviews
Jan 23, 2024
Would give 100 Stars if I could. Dr Francavilla did my Spinal Fusion L5 S1 surgery in 2002 @ Brookwood Medical Center in Birmingham Alabama. He is the greatest surgeon. I have had no problems, people can't believe I have had Spinal surgery. If I needed any surgery that he could do, I would drive to the end of the earth to have him do my surgery. HIGHLY RECOMMEND Dr. Francavilla, he is not just a wonderful doctor, he is a wonderful man!
