Biography
“I believe in establishing a good and attentive relationship with the patient. Thoroughly assessing their health condition before reaching a diagnosis and maximizing conservative (non-surgical) treatment options before deciding on surgery. In recent years, we have witnessed a true revolution in the field of spinal surgery with the introduction of advanced technological means that enable the surgeon to perform the operation with minimal surgical incision and tissue damage around the spine. Minimally invasive surgery offers significant benefits to the patient, including lower levels of pain compared to ‘open’ surgery and a faster return to health due to minimal damage to the back muscles.”
