Did you know that radiating pain (meaning pain that travels from one place to another) arm or leg pain, numbness or tingling could be a sign of spinal problems? Often, medications, injections, and physical therapy can treat back pain at first. But when these treatments no longer offer relief, it might be time for surgery.

For pain you can no longer control on your own, we offer the latest options in spine surgery and post-surgical spine care, including:
- Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (neck surgery to remove a damaged disc)
- Cervical laminoplasty (removing pressure from the spinal cord in the neck)
- Interventional spine procedures (nerve blocks, injections and spinal cord stimulators)
- Laminectomy (removal of part of vertebra of either neck or lower back to unpinch nerves)
- Lateral interbody fusion (minimally invasive procedure performed through the side of the back)
- Lumbar microdiscectomy (minimally invasive procedure to fix a disc herniation in the lower back)
- Spinal fusion (surgery to immobilize two or more bones in the spine)
Whenever possible, we use minimally invasive techniques to help you heal faster.
