Brief Intro

I believe that surgery is the last resort for the treatment of spinal disorders, especially when fusion is required. I believe working with the patient's preference, lifestyle and the involvement of the family in the decision making process. My specialty is in complex spine surgery, our niche: extensive spinal revision for previous failed spine surgery. My double specialist degree in General Surgery and Neurosurgery had provided me with extensive clinical and technical skills. Our practice, consisting of a Neurosurgical spine surgeon, and an Orthopedic spine surgeon, has been focusing on extensive spine revisions. Our multidisciplinary approach gives us particular insight in combining the delicate microsurgical skills with extensive instrumentation skills. We have a high case volume of more than 600 spine cases a year, with a substantial volume of revisions. We also champion minimally invasive spine surgery, performing the highest volume of kyphoplasty in Michigan. We work closely with the pain specialists in the Southeast region of Michigan. In addition to providing excellent patient care, our practice is committed to patient education, patient satisfaction and outcome research. We are dedicated to training residents and engaging in leading product study, like the upcoming disc replacement study.
