Advanced Surgical Care for Back Pain

If you are living with back pain or neck pain, a laminectomy can provide relief. This type of surgery can help when less invasive treatment options like medication no longer work or there are symptoms of nerve damage, such as numbness in the arms or legs. Our spine surgeons are highly experienced in laminectomy surgery and specialize in cutting-edge, minimally invasive techniques that require less bone removal and help speed your recovery.

As you heal, our physical and occupational therapists and pain management specialists offer additional support and care. Our goal is to improve your quality of life.
