In majority of patients with back pain, spine surgery is only considered after conservative therapy options are no longer appropriate.
For patients requiring spine surgery, Englewood Hospital offers a team of experienced, fellowship-trained orthopedic surgeons and neurosurgeons. They boast a variety of specialties – all at the forefront of advances in orthopedic surgical and neurosurgical techniques.
Surgical procedures include: Discectomy, Foramenotomy, Laminectomy, Spine fusion, and Spinal disc replacement.
Our surgeons are experts in minimally-invasive surgery which are performed with smaller incisions, resulting in smaller scars and less pain than traditional surgery methods. Furthermore, 95% of all elective surgery performed at Englewood Hospital – including spine surgery – is performed without blood transfusions. Bloodless surgery has been shown to result in a quicker healing process, shorter hospital stay, and a reduced risk of infection.
