Nick Godkin is a retired electrician and lives happily on his ranch north of Houston with his wife. He has always kept busy with the garden, animals, and daily chores. When he noticed his vision was getting blurry, he decided to go to the doctor. Surprisingly, they discovered he had a brain tumor. Having trusted a St. Luke's The Woodlands Hospital physician with his mother's care, he chose the same physician to care for him.
Using the minimally invasive stereotactic radiosurgery system, Gamma Knife®, Nick underwent a procedure to treat the brain tumor without incision!
