I am a surgeon that believes that surgery should be a last resort option. I take the time to explain your condition to you in detail, go over your xrays, MRI's and CT scans with you and review all of the pertinent findings and anatomy. I use models as a teaching tool whenever possible. We will try all nonsurgical options prior to proceeding with surgery, assuming that is safe. I can assure you that when you leave my office after the appointment you will feel educated about your condition and empowered to make decisions.
