| | Nearly every major medical breakthrough over the past 50 years can be attributed to new discoveries that were made possible through meticulous biomedical research. Many diseases and conditions that previously took a heavy toll on patients in terms of both morbidity and mortality are now either treatable or preventable thanks in large part to painstaking research that expanded the frontiers of scientific knowledge and moved the most promising basic research developments into tangible health benefits through human clinical trails. Ongoing research is also the key that will open the door to additional major medical advances and breakthroughs in the future.

What Our Customers Are Saying... "The MediFocus Guidebook on Spondylolisthesis provided me with the information I needed to make an informed decision regarding my treatment. The Guidebook clearly explained the various grades of spondylolisthesis and what patients can expect at each stage. The various treatment options are also clearly explained so that you walk away with a much more realistic expectation about what to expect after treatment."

"The MediFocus Guidebook on Spondylolisthesis enabled me to have a more meaningful and serious discussion with my Orthopedic Surgeon about the various treatment options that are available to me. Your very comprehensive and informative Guidebook not only helped me prepare the right questions to ask my surgeon but also helped me better understand the answers he provided."
