Jeanne Strutz – Her Story and Road to Recovery
From Dr. Alvine
My father had a great influence on me. He was an orthopedic surgeon as well, and I had the opportunity to practice with him over ten years of the past 22 years of my practice. Over the years, I observed how he treated each and every patient as an opportunity to help them, which I try to do today.
