GREETINGS FROM GLOBUS MEDICAL!
We hope the New Year has gone well for you thus
far. As of 2012, 34 patients were enrolled in the
study. Globus would like to recognize the efforts
of the Investigator and Coordinator from the
highest enrolling site of 2012: Dr. Robert Eastlack
(12 patients); Study Coordinator- Janet Daniel. The
study got completed at Dr. St Lopez’s site in Dec
2012. We are off to a great start this year and new
research centers have been added to help
