After years of suffering from snoring, chronic throat infections, and sleep apnea, Curtis Culver decided to make a change so he scheduled an appointment with Dr. David Opperman. After discussing the various treatment options, Dr. Opperman and Curtis decided that doing a bi-lateral tonsillectomy using the Medrobotics Flex Robotic System would be the best choice.

In this video, Curtis talks about the surgery, the attentive care he received at Presbyterian/St. Luke's Medical Center, and how his quality of life has improved.
