    On July 18, 2025, I underwent spine surgery performed by Dr. Jian Shen and his surgical teammate,…read moreDr. Travis Hill. My pre-op diagnosis included severe lumbar spinal stenosis with neurogenic claudication, lumbar degenerative spondylolisthesis, and lumbar radiculopathy. My condition before surgery had severely impacted my mobility and daily life. Just weeks prior, in June 2025, I attended an academic conference in Boston and was completely unable to walk, having to rely on a wheelchair to get around. The surgical procedure was complex and extensive, including L3/4, L4/5, and L5/S1 endplate osteotomies, partial L5 corpectomy for resection of significant endplate osteophytes, L3/4 and L4/5 bilateral laminotomies, bilateral L4/5 and L5/S1 posterolateral foraminotomies using an outside-in approach, and L3/4, L4/5, and L5/S1 posterior facet augmentation/arthrodesis with local bone autograft without instrumentation. Thanks to Dr. Shen's extraordinary surgical expertise, the operation was a complete success, and my recovery has been truly life-changing. In the very first week post-surgery, I experienced dramatic relief--my right leg felt about 80 to 85 percent recovered, and my left leg about 70 to 75 percent recovered. Now, one year later, my right leg is almost 100 percent recovered, and my left leg is at about 85 percent. I can comfortably walk for over an hour and a half without pain. Less than a year after surgery, between May and July 2026, I was able to travel across China for nearly two months. I navigated airport terminals, transferred between flights, and walked through multiple touring cities with total ease--something that would have been unimaginable before the operation. Beyond his brilliant clinical skills, Dr. Shen is an exceptionally warm, patient, and compassionate doctor. During our appointments both before and after surgery, he always took the time to listen carefully, never making us feel rushed, and answered every single question from both my wife and me with immense patience. What stands out just as much is Dr. Shen's genuine thoughtfulness toward his patients' families. During my procedure at St. Mary's Healthcare, which lasted from morning until afternoon, he kept in mind that my wife was waiting outside the operating room. He thoughtfully arranged for a hospital meal voucher so she could get something to eat for lunch while waiting. Additionally, the office staff at ShenSpine are wonderful--always professional, kind, and quick to take care of any requests. Dr. Shen gave me my mobility and quality of life back. I am deeply grateful to him, Dr. Travis Hill, and the entire ShenSpine team, and I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone facing serious spine issues. 2025年7月18日,我接受了 Dr. Jian Shen 及其手术搭档 Dr. Travis Hill 的脊柱手术。手前我的诊断包括严重的腰椎管狭窄伴神经源性间歇性跛行、腰椎退行性滑脱以及腰神经根病变。在手术前,我的病情严重影响了日常行走能力。就在2025年6月,我去波士顿参加学术会议时已经完全无法行走,全程只能依赖轮椅。 这次手术非常复杂精细,具体包括:L3/4、L4/5 和 L5/S1 椎体终端骨赘切除术及 L5 部分椎体切除术;L3/4 和 L4/5 双侧椎板切开术;采用"由外向内"入路完成的双侧 L4/5 和 L5/S1 外侧椎间孔切开术;以及利用局部自骨进行的 L3/4、L4/5 和 L5/S1 后方关节突融合术(未装钉)。 得益于沈医生极其高超的医术,手术获得了巨大的成功,我的康复效果堪称改变人生。术后第一周,我就感受到了极大的缓解----右腿恢复了大约80%至85%,左腿恢复了大约70%至75%。如今术后满一年,我的右腿已经几乎100%康复,左腿也恢复到了大约85%。我现在可以轻松舒适地行走一个半小时以上。在2026年5月至7月的近两个月中,我甚至远赴中国旅行,在多个城市之间游览、在机场航站楼之间自如穿行和转机----这一切在手术前都是完全不敢想象的。 除了精湛的医术,沈医生还是一位极其温和、耐心且充满同理心的好医生。在术前和术后的诊疗过程中,他总是耐心地倾听我们的诉求,从不让人感到仓促,并且不厌其烦地解答我和我妻子提出的每一个问题。 更令人感动的是沈医生对患者及家属无微不至的关怀。由于我的手术从早晨一直持续到下午,沈医生特意考虑到我妻子一直在手术室外等候,还非常贴心地为她准备了医院的用餐券,让她能在等候期间吃上一顿午饭。此外,ShenSpine 诊所的工作人员也非常优秀,处理各种请求时总是高效、亲切且尽责。 是沈医生让我重新找回了行走的能力和生活的质量。我对Dr. Shen, Dr. Hill 以及整个 ShenSpine 团队表达最诚挚的感激,并向所有面临严重脊柱问题的患者强烈推荐Dr. Jian Shen!
