Mayor’s Surgery Offers Relief

Pioneer Press

Mayor Michael D. Belsky underwent successful surgery at Highland Park Hospital on the back of his neck June 26 to relieve a chronic pain condition caused by bone spurs.

Surgery involved removal and replacement of four discs by the medical team of Dr. Jonathan Citow and Dr. Gary Kaufman.

The minimally-invasive surgery allowed him to return home over the weekend where he is recuperating for several days.
