Before every surgery, we prayed with each patient and before we \n retired for the night, we prayer for each patient by name. While the surgery \n produces physical healing, we believe our prayers and petitions assist in \n spiritual healing. We want each patient to have a closer relationship to God after \n they have visited us at Clinica Ezell.","bbox":{"left":0.142915,"top":0.732109,"width":0.714233,"height":0.11498200000000003}}],"images_bbox":[],"images_bbox_not_text_overlap":[]}
