2018 – Isaiah Clarke

Isaiah Clarke (Guyana)

Isaiah’s spine surgery performed by Dr. Ryan Murdock and his team at Dell Children’s Medical Center of Central Texas was a success! Dr. Murdock did a fantastic job, bringing his multiple curves down to only a 16 degree curve. Isaiah is recovering well and back to his life in the Republic of Guyana.
