The Center for Spine and Orthopedics’ own Dr. Michael Janssen was the expert speaker at an AOSpine Symposium in Guatemala, as well as operated at three different hospitals there. Check out some of the stellar feedback he received from Mario Bran — Clínica Especializada en Columna Vertebral.
Thanks a lot Dr Janssen!
“I know you are a very smart person…. But this time I know for sure you do not have the idea what you did to my country and my society to come to Guatemala! You already changed my life….. But this time you changed a lot of lives that would make such a difference in health care all over my country!
You are just one of a kind….. And I am not taking myself! I am talking in behalf of all the spine surgeons that attended the seminar and the hospitals you visited! Everybody is taking about you…… I think you just became a hero to everyone here! Everybody is just calling me to congratulate me about you!
I do not have the words enough to say to you how grateful I am towards you because you made a difference in a whole country!
Thanks my dearest professor! It was such an honor to attend you… I just hope I did enough so you had a great time!”

Mario,
“Thank you for the kind note…… I was humbled to spend such quality time with all the surgeons in Central America. I found this an incredible enriching experience for shared knowledge and innovative surgical experience.
I was proud to be the first recipient of the German Ochoa AOSpine traveling fellowship last summer, and I could not have selected a finer place to spend time and interact with such quality surgeons. I hope you assume a leadership role in the AOSpine Guatemala community, and ultimately the AOSpine Latin American region.
When we have extra spine surgical instruments, we will send them to your community to better serve your patients in need of your experience and talents.
Thank you and your team for the hospitality.”
Mike Janssen
