My approach to treating patients

I am quite committed to the field of spine surgery and my patients. My mission is to provide comprehensive spine care to family members of all ages. My goal is to return each patient to his/her previous functional activity level. Most of the time, patients with spinal issues can be treated successfully without surgery. I listen to all my patients and will do a thorough history, physical examination, and review of imaging studies. A detailed discussion is carried out with the patient about the diagnosis and different treatment modalities. My patients are an active participant in the decision making process. If spinal surgery is necessary, my partners and I have been able to combine our expertise in both orthopaedic and neurosurgery to offer you the most advanced and minimally invasive surgical intervention.
