We are 100% focused on conditions of the neck and back. Every person on the medical staff and every piece of technology is exclusively dedicated to minimally invasive spine surgery.
Back pain is a symptom which usually results from strain or injury to one or more parts of the back.
The most common reason for neck pain is muscle sprain or excessive strain on ligaments and tendons of the neck.
Disc bulge, commonly referred to as slipped disc can occur in lower back(Lumbar Spine),mid back (Thoracic Spine), or in the neck (Cervica Spine).
Sciatica is a common type of pain that is characterized by pain the lower back that radiates down to the back of the thigh or all the way down to the foot.
A nerve root block is a technique of injecting local anesthetic (numbing medicine) and steroid medication that is injected under X-ray guidance into the problem area where the nerve root exits the spinal column.
Microdiscectomy is a minimally invasive spine surgery technique done to provide relief from pain caused by a disc bulge.It is performed through a small incision using a microscope for magnifying the surgical field view.
Endoscopic Spine Surgery is a state-of-the-art spine surgery that is done using a small tubular system and micro incision, assisted with an endoscope for visualization of the problem area in the spine.
Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion is a surgical procedure done to treat nerve root or spinal cord compression in the neck.It is done by entering the space between two discs through a small incision in front of and at the right or left side of the neck through a small incision.
