Our surgeons specialize in minimally invasive surgical techniques to minimize surgical dissection and maximize relief of symptoms. Some advantages of minimally invasive spine surgery are: less use of post operative narcotics, less post-operative pain, shorter recovery time and excellent outcomes.

The techniques our surgeons use include:

• Decompress the spinal canal (stenosis)
• Remove Herniated Discs in the lumbar spine that put pressure on the spinal nerve roots causing pain, numbness or weakness.
• Stabilize or fuse the spine with instrumentation.
• Correct spinal deformity
• Stabilize fractures

These techniques generate the following results:

• Quicker return to normal activites
• Less post-operative pain
• Less damage to muscle and skin
• Small scars
• Less blood loss
• Out patient surgery for some patients
• Shorter hospital stays

Here are the types of minimally invasive spine procedures our surgeons perform:

• Laminectomy
• Laminotomy
• Anterior Cervical Discectomy with Fusion (ACDF)
• Lumbar Fusion
• Disc Replacement
• Radio Frequency Ablation (RFA)
• Kyphoplasty
• Epidural Injections
• Facet Block Injections
• Transforaminal Injections
