We find that it is in fact quite helpful in enhancing diagnostic accuracy and informing more precise treatment decisions.

Checkout our new study👇👇
Despite the high prevalence of pain, it wasn’t linked to significant distress in patients with spine mets. Emotional symptoms like anxiety and fear had a much greater impact. Important implications for supportive care.

MIS awake spine = game changer for frail patients! 74yo with Parkinson’s & neurogenic claudication from L4–5 stenosis. Had tried PT & injections. Then, @abdelbarrspine performed awake decompression. No complications, and a year later she's back to activities—including boxing🥊

Some of the best surgeries we do is no surgery at all! It's great to work with an interdisciplinary team -working on lifestyle changes, specific injections, PT/OT, chiropractic care and the patient's back pain is resolved without surgery.
