Spinal Stenosis and Myelopathy

Our world-renowned spine surgeons provide comprehensive care for spinal stenosis and myelopathy.

Expert Care for Spinal Stenosis and Myelopathy

Spinal stenosis occurs when the spaces in your spine narrow due to age-related wear and tear or an injury. This can lead to an increase in pressure on the spinal cord and nerves. Over time, spinal stenosis can cause severe compression of the spinal cord, also called myelopathy.

Our spine care team treats spinal stenosis symptoms, such as:

  • Back and neck pain
  • Muscle weakness
  • Numbness or tingling in your arms and legs

If your symptoms do not improve, our experienced spine team offers a wide range of surgical options, from less invasive treatment to cutting-edge robotic technology.

When Should I See a Spine Surgeon?

Why Choose Us for Spinal Stenosis Surgery and Care

Your spine care team includes orthopedic and neurological surgeons, physiatrists, pain management specialists and physical therapists.

We provide advanced diagnostic testing to determine what’s causing your neck pain or back pain and create a treatment plan just for you.

Our Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) program provides support tools to help patients recover and return home sooner.

Our spine surgeons are pioneers in minimally invasive spine surgery and trusted experts among patients looking for second opinions.

We are recognized as a Blue Distinction Center by Blue Cross Blue Shield for our high-quality spine care.
