He will be missed. Mike was a great friend of the @painsection. He was a frequent lecturer and debater in our sessions on Neuromodulation vs structural surgery for spinal pain.
We are heartbroken to share the tragic news of the sudden passing of Dr. Michael Groff, his wife Dr. Joy Saini, their daughter Karenna, their son Jared, and two close family friends in a plane crash near Copake, New York. A dedicated neurosurgeon, educator, and leader, Mike
