Surgeon Who Fixed Princess Eugenie’s Spine Gets Invite To Her Wedding

An invitation to a royal wedding is always a coveted invite. For one surgeon in the U.K., it’s also a “thank you” for a job well done 14 years ago. That was when orthopedic spinal surgeon Jan Lehovsky from the Royal National Orthopedic Hospital (RNOH) in Stanmore performed corrective surgery on Princess Eugenie.
