Patient Story
Patient Finds Hope In Rare Surgery
David became a quadriplegic after a construction accident almost two years ago. In February 2011, he underwent surgery that implanted a diaphragm pacemaker, which eventually will allow him to breathe on his own.
He sought medical care at the Center for Treatment of Paralysis and Reconstructive Surgery at Jersey Shore University Medical Center where Dr. Matthew Kaufman performed a rare surgery to help David.
