Course Description
Come and learn about Spinal Stenosis and the new minimally invasive options for treatment. Spinal stenosis is due to a variety of factors and is defined in different locations of your spine. People often describe tingling, numbness, weakness in their legs and back. Often the symptoms are worse with walking, standing and are relieved with sitting. Come learn about the 3 NEW minimally invasive treatment options for Spinal Stenosis: Vertiflex (a spacer placed to help open the space), Minuteman (a spacer and includes a fusion if you have minor instability or degenerative disc) and the MILD procedure (for people with Ligamentum Flavum Hypertrophy). All these and more can be done in our AAAHC/Medicare certified ASC (Ambulatory Surgery Center). YES, this means you will go home the same day!
