Our physicians have both the experience and expertise with the latest technology to perform a full range of routine to complex procedures.
Minimally Invasive Procedures
Minimally invasive surgery allows the surgeon to access damaged or diseased areas of the spine utilizing state-of-the-art equipment that allows for smaller incisions. The minimal access approach can offer decreased post-op pain, decreased muscle spasms, reduction of perioperative discomfort, speedier recovery and more cost-effective care. Some of the minmally invasive procedures include:
- Dynamic stabilization techniques
- Endoscopic microdiscectomy - a minimal incision technique using a small fiber-optic camera that allows the surgeon to visualize the affected disc
- X Stop TM - a recently approved implanted device designed to provide pain relief for spinal stenosis
