General spine surgery

We understand that choosing to undergo spine surgery is a significant decision, and we are here to provide you with the information, guidance, and support you need.

Our team of highly skilled spine surgeons is committed to offering comprehensive and advanced surgical solutions for a wide range of spinal conditions.

Whether you’re dealing with lumbar, thoracic, cervical, or general spine issues, our primary objective is to alleviate pain, restore function, and enhance your overall quality of life.

As a specialised field, spine surgery involves the surgical treatment of various spinal conditions such as herniated discs, spinal deformities, spinal stenosis, and spinal cord compression.

At our clinic, we prioritise the use of minimally invasive techniques whenever possible. These techniques help reduce post-operative discomfort, promote faster recovery, and minimise scarring, ensuring you have a smoother healing process.

With our team of dedicated surgeons and staff, you can expect exceptional care, expertise, and personalised attention throughout your journey with us.

We will guide you through the entire surgical journey, from pre-operative consultations and thorough evaluations to the surgery itself and post-operative care. Our comprehensive range of spine surgeries include:

Our consultation process begins with a comprehensive evaluation and thorough discussion of your symptoms, medical history, and treatment goals. Our experienced spine surgeons will review your diagnostic test results, explain the available surgical options, and address any concerns or questions you may have. We believe in open communication and shared decision-making, ensuring that you are actively involved in determining the best course of action for your spine condition.

The recovery period varies depending on the specific surgery and individual factors. Generally, it can take several days, weeks to months for patients to experience significant improvement and return to their normal activities. Your surgeon will provide detailed post-operative instructions and guide you through the recovery process, including physical therapy and follow-up appointments.

As with any surgical procedure, spine surgery carries some risks. These may include infection, bleeding, nerve damage, blood clots, and adverse reactions to anaesthesia. However, it’s important to note that serious complications are rare, and your surgeon will take precautions to minimise the risks and ensure your safety.

During the surgery, you will be under anaesthesia and should not feel any pain. After the procedure, some discomfort and pain are expected, but they can be managed with pain medications prescribed by your surgeon. The medical team will closely monitor your pain levels and work with you to provide appropriate pain relief during the recovery period.

In most cases, non-surgical treatments such as physical therapy, medication, injections, and lifestyle modifications can effectively manage spine-related conditions. These conservative treatments are almost always explored before considering surgery. Your surgeon will thoroughly evaluate your condition and discuss all available options to determine the most suitable and least invasive treatment approach for you.

Your surgeon and their team will provide specific instructions on how to prepare for the surgery, which may include fasting before the procedure, adjusting medications, and stopping certain supplements or medications that can interfere with the surgery or recovery. It’s essential to follow these instructions closely to optimise the surgical outcome and minimise potential complications. Additionally, having a support system in place and preparing your home environment for your post-operative needs can contribute to a smoother recovery.
