Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery
Fusion is sometimes the right answer. When it is, small incisions and image guidance spare the surrounding muscle and bone.
Schedule My ConsultationSpine surgery has changed over the last two decades. Many procedures that once required large incisions and extensive muscle dissection are now done through very small incisions, using image guidance and specialized instruments. That means less tissue trauma and a faster recovery. Many are outpatient procedures with same-day discharge.
