Endoscopic Disk Surgery Part 1. This is the intro by my surgeon Doctor Hoogland of the Alpha Spine Klinik in Munich, Germany. They are one of the few hospitals that does an endoscopic type disk surgery. The old way of doing things was dangerous and painful, not to mention it would have required a 2 week hospital stay after the operation. After the surgery below, I literally walked out of the hospital.

Endoscopic Disk Surgery Part 3. Dr Hoogland finishes up and shows the disk material that was removed.
I watched it. It wasn't icky and bloody like I thought it would be. But it was hard to tell what was going on. The doctor sure did a lot of digging. Very good Paul. I am happy for you that you will be pain free. Love you, Lisa
Paul! Wow Man! Zach had told me that you were on sick leave because of your back. Of course I wanted to email you to see what is up but decided I would wait until the wild videos showed up. Too wild! I like how Dr. Holigan (Ha! Ha!) was kickn back on your back while telling about the
shizza he just pulled out of your spine. Good to hear that all is well with you.
