Spine Surgery
The spinal cord is the main pathway for information, connecting the brain and peripheral nervous system. Maintaining the health and proper interaction between the spine, spinal cord and nerves is critical for an individual to lead a normal life. Spinal disorders such as spinal tumors, disc herniation, scoliosis and spinal cord injuries can cause severe pain and inhibit movement.
Our accomplished team of spine surgeons provides expertise in a wide range of surgical treatments for spine conditions. We offer both minimally invasive and open options, all of which are carefully tailored to suit patient-specific goals.
Once a complete diagnosis has been performed our spine surgeons collaborate with a multidisciplinary team of specialists including physical therapists, occupational therapists, pain management specialists and rehabilitation physicians to provide each patient with a comprehensive treatment plan. This integrated approach allows our team to reduce inpatient stays, maximize successful patient outcomes, and ultimately facilitate a quicker return of patients to everyday activities.
Our expert team of neurosurgeons offers consultation to thoroughly review patients’ medical histories and diagnostic data in order to carefully select patients for potential surgery.
