Patient Reviews
Jun 05, 2023
Dr. Africk did my second back surgery at Carle Hospital in Urbana, Illinois. Mostly she cleaned up the mess done by a highly recommended surgeon in Indianapolis. She went the extra mile to explain what she will do and everything after the surgery. I always have said if I ever need surgery again I would travel to wherever she is.
