Spine Surgery

Advanced Care for Back and Neck Pain

At our orthopedic practice, spine surgery is a specialized service designed to relieve chronic back pain, sciatica, and other spinal conditions when non-surgical treatments aren’t enough. Our board-certified spine surgeons use state-of-the-art techniques—ranging from minimally invasive procedures to complex reconstructions—to restore your mobility and quality of life. With our advanced X-ray facility for precise diagnostics and expert physiotherapy for recovery, we provide comprehensive care tailored to your needs.

When Is Spine Surgery Needed?

Spine surgery is typically considered for conditions that don’t improve with conservative treatments like physiotherapy, medications, or injections after 6-12 weeks. Our surgeons carefully evaluate each case to ensure surgery is the right choice. Common conditions we treat include:

Sciatica:
* Herniated discs compressing the sciatic nerve, causing radiating leg pain, numbness, or weakness.
* Bone spurs or synovial cysts pinching nerves.
* Degenerative disc disease or arthritis in spinal (facet) joints.
* Spinal stenosis, narrowing the spinal canal and pressing on nerves.

Spinal Deformities:
* Scoliosis or kyphosis causing pain or functional limitations.

Fractures and Injuries:
* Vertebral fractures from trauma or osteoporosis, often diagnosed with our X-ray facility.

Other Conditions: Tumors, infections, or instability (e.g., spondylolisthesis) affecting the spine.

Using our on-site X-ray and advanced imaging (MRI/CT), we pinpoint the cause of your symptoms to recommend the most effective surgical approach.

Our Spine Surgery Options

We offer a full spectrum of spine surgeries, prioritizing minimally invasive techniques when possible to minimize recovery time and risks. Your personalized plan may include:

Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery

Endoscopic Discectomy (Arthroscopy): Using a tiny camera and small incisions, we remove herniated disc fragments causing sciatica or back pain. Patients often return to light activities within 1-2 weeks.

Microdiscectomy: A small incision to remove disc material pressing on nerves, ideal for sciatica relief with minimal tissue disruption.

Laminotomy: Relieves pressure from spinal stenosis by removing a small portion of bone, preserving spinal stability.

Benefits: Smaller scars, less pain, and faster recovery (weeks vs. months) compared to open surgery.

Traditional (Open) Spine Surgery

Laminectomy: Removes part of the vertebrae to widen the spinal canal, treating severe stenosis or nerve compression.

Spinal Fusion: Joins two or more vertebrae to stabilize the spine, often for degenerative conditions, fractures, or deformities like scoliosis. May use screws, rods, or bone grafts.

Disc Replacement: Replaces a damaged disc with an artificial one to maintain motion, an alternative to fusion for select patients.

Benefits: Addresses complex or severe conditions when minimally invasive options aren’t suitable.

Our surgeons use advanced tools like robotic-assisted systems and intraoperative navigation to enhance precision and safety.
