On Tuesday, May 28, during his post-operative visit to Och Spine at New York-Presbyterian at the Weill Cornell Medicine Center for Comprehensive Spine Care, Archbishop Anoushavan had all 20 stitches removed.
During the visit, His Eminence also met with his renowned neurosurgeon, Dr Roger Härtl, who was pleased with the results of the surgery and encouraged the prelate to continue the remaining treatment during the period of four weeks, to be followed by physiotherapy.
As a token of his gratitude, Archbishop Anoushavan presented Dr. Härtl an Armenian-style cross, which he accepted with great appreciation.
The Prelate continues fulfilling his obligations from home.
