It has been a year ( Nov 29th, 2022) since Dr Gallo repaired my spine, redoing a failed L4-L5 fusion, decompressing two additional discs and inserting metal spacers to reinforce my spine. Placing an implanted spinal stimulator, during the surgery and overall giving my life back to me. I can not thank her and the staff enough for the professional and caring treatment I received. I’m 73 yrs old and the pain was to the point I couldn’t sleep, stand, sit or hardly walk and thought the end of my life was near. Thanks to Dr. Gallo. I am about 75% less in the pain that was running my life. I am not pain free, but I didn’t expect tp be. The custom brace designed for me, has worked well. I still use it when driving long distances or know I will need to pick up some weighty items. I live near south western coastal area and travel to Eugene was so very difficult before surgery and now I feel like I am living a pretty normal retired life. I am so pleased with the results of the procedure, I would go beyond highly recommending her and the staff of NeuroSpine. God bless them all for the outstanding work they do. They were the saving blessing of my life !!

Dr Gallo was able to obtain prior approval in a very short period of time. She assessed the situation scheduled me for surgery and is my new hero. I was in less pain while recovering from the surgery the very day of my surgery than I was the day before surgery. I would recommend this surgeon to anyone suffering from the type of pain I lived with for 10 years. My neurologist is amazed at the improvement I showed 10 days post surgery. My only regret is that I did not meet Dr Gallo years ago.

Met Dr. Gallo this week. What a refreshing approach to medical care. She not only is extremely well educated and skilled but also has a personality, sense of humor and candor.

I drove three hours for this appointment and she never rushed me, answered all my questions, filled in the blanks when I didn’t ask enough questions, and after I left and thought of more, she gladly answered my concerns without insisting on another appoonent.

This was a refreshing, reaffirmation of what medical care should be like.

Dr. Catherine Gallo is an amazing doctor. She gave my husband his ability to walk again after a tragic fall that left him with paralysis and loss of blood flow to his spine.

Boston Scientific
WaveWriter Alpha™ Spinal Cord Stimulator (SCS) System

PROFOUND. PROVEN. DIFFERENT.

The Boston Scientific WaveWriter Alpha™ Spinal Cord Stimulator System is designed to help people living with chronic, intractable pain in the back, legs, or feet who have not found lasting relief with medications, injections, or prior surgeries. This FDA-approved, drug-free therapy works by delivering mild electrical pulses through thin, flexible leads placed near the spinal cord, interrupting pain signals before they reach the brain. Because pain is unique, the WaveWriter Alpha System can be personalized to your specific pain patterns and may provide relief you can feel in minutes that can last for years. Many patients are able to try the therapy first with a temporary trial to see if it works for them before deciding on a permanent implant.
