My name is Ogretta Joy Witzl and I am fifty-five years “young.” Because of my tremendous good fortune, to have been graced with a new lease on life, which is free of pain, I have an abundance of life, which I did not believe I would ever know again. I had suffered from lower back pain for over twenty-five years. On May 31, 2006, the doctor with the “magic hands,” Dr. Richard Francis, performed a procedure, which transformed my life, my soul, and my outlook on life, to a life free of pain. Dr. Francis is a brilliant doctor, to say the least, but his greatest gift is that of making sure his patients are educated about their condition. He is calm, he is reassuring, he is patient, and always has time to listen to his patients. Dr. Francis is a man of grace. When you look into his eyes, one has – at a glance – his/her fears alleviated, and one feels himself/herself taking that breath of “it’s going to be fine.” I have never met a doctor who is first a man of dignity. Dr. Francis, the “man with the magic hands,” has healed not only my body but also my spirit. I have so much faith and admiration for this gentleman, and that is exactly what he is – a gentle man – with the gift of healing. I plan to have cervical surgery in late May 2007. I know that I am blessed to have found Fr. Francis, and I recommend this gentle man, this gifted surgeon, this “man with magic hands” to lead you to a life free of pain, and freedom from fear. I have been blessed!
