Meet Megan! ✨
Megan is a Patient Ambassador who is treated by Dr. Pahys for scoliosis. She received spinal fusion surgery when she was 13, and, now 19, is proof that spinal surgery does not have to slow you down.
She is a second-degree black belt in Taekwondo and does not have limited range of motion despite her spinal fusion surgery. She also stays active playing volleyball, wakeboarding, skiing and snowboarding. Without her spine surgery, her scoliosis would have inhibited her from doing the activities she loves.
This past summer, she attended the Summer Research Immersion Program at , and is currently in college studying on the pre-med track. Megan said, "Dr. Pahys completely changed my life for the better after my fusion surgery, and I want to help children the same way he helped me."
