Neck stiffness that radiates into your arms. Lower back pain that won’t let up. Mid-back tightness or thoracic discomfort that limits your daily routine. Our Harvard-trained spine surgeon treats the full range of cervical, thoracic, and lumbar conditions, from herniated discs and spinal stenosis to complex degenerative disease. Most patients improve without surgery, and that’s always where we start.

Surgical & Non-Surgical Approaches

Minimally invasive removal of herniated disc material pressing on spinal nerves. Typically outpatient with rapid recovery.

Laminectomy

Cervical Fusion

Stabilization of the cervical vertebrae for patients with disc herniation, fracture, or instability in the neck.

Lumbar Spinal Fusion

Fusion of lumbar vertebrae for degenerative disc disease, spondylolisthesis, or lower back instability.

Kyphoplasty

Minimally invasive vertebral fracture repair that restores height and reduces pain.

Minimally Invasive Surgery

Advanced techniques using smaller incisions, less tissue disruption, and faster recovery across cervical, thoracic, and lumbar procedures.
