Spine

Is an injury or pain in your spine limiting your activities and keeping you from fully experiencing life? At UofL Health – Orthopedics, our team of game-changing experts is dedicated to getting you back to the life you deserve with a variety of customized care options for spine surgeries. As premier orthopedic and joint replacement specialists, our physicians are leaders in the field and train other doctors in advanced surgical methods. Our goal is to improve our patient’s quality of life with state-of-the-art techniques and implants, coupled with a comfortable hospital experience.

Back pain can often be debilitating and is one of the most common reasons people seek medical care or miss work. Back or spine surgery is often a solution, but when previous surgeries have not provided needed relief, patients may lose complete hope of living pain-free again. However, even when previous spine surgeries have not helped, there are still options available.

Our Orthopedic Spine specialists also provide care at UofL Health – Comprehensive Spine Center, part of the UofL Health – Brain & Spine Institute. This unique center provides highly-specialized, evidence-based, customized care for patients who continue to seek back pain relief after previous spinal surgeries and are in need of revision spine surgery. Specialized care is also provided through the center to adults with scoliosis and SI joint pain (sacroiliac joint dysfunction).

With UofL Health – Orthopedics, our patient’s care journey does not end after surgery has been completed. Favoring a multidisciplinary approach to patient care, the spine center develops individualized comprehensive treatment plans for patients with physiatrists, neurology and pain specialists.
