Exceptionally Great Spine Doctors
As spine doctors at South Texas Spine Clinic, we try to educate our patients on their options. Statistics show that four out of five adults will have at least one episode of severe lumbar back pain in their lives. But, eighty-five percent of those adults can be helped with non-surgical ways. Instead they can try medications or physical therapy or a combination of both to ease their symptoms. Our job as spine doctors is to make sure our patients get a thorough assessment of their condition and the proper diagnosis. Then we strive to make sure that each patient knows their treatment options. Sometimes those options include surgery, but we try to let each of our patients know all the available choices and potential outcomes. If you deem surgery as your best option our spine doctors have the skills and training necessary to operate with a successful outcome. Some of the surgical procedures that we do include anterior cervical fusion or discectomy, lumbar laminectomy or microdiscectomy, and microendoscopic system. We educate our patients as to what to expect before, during, and after surgery. Our spine doctors and other staff can talk you through the whole process and you will know what to expect as well as the risks associated with each surgery. We will also give you a guideline for how long your recovery will take. South Texas Spine Clinic is based in San Antonio with satellite offices servicing the surrounding area. Call us today to schedule an appointment with one of our qualified spine doctors and begin your road to a healthier and happier spine. |
