    This procedure has helped my daughter tremendously! I couldn't have asked for a a better outcome. I wasn't expecting to see this much of a difference in such a short amount of time. Dr Harris was wonderful and the staff really took good care of my daughter and made the process as comfortable as possible. Literally the day after her procedure she was breathing better and a week later even talking better! I am very grateful and couldn't be more thrilled with the outcome.
