Medical Practices

Overview

We are a full spectrum treatment alternative for healthy living which includes all orthopedic, brain and spine procedures. We offer everything from minimally invasive to complex procedures depending on diagnosis. We always endeavor to provide the absolute minimally invasive solutions for your recovery. Our medical philosophy involves improving your bodily improvement as quickly and with as little pain as possible. At Tampa Bay Orthopedic and Spine, we exclusively practice minimally invasive spine procedures, also known as MIS, because of the many benefits it provides to our patients over the traditional surgical approach. Most Procedures Our typical procedure uses special instruments that are gentle when separating muscle and we always attempt to avoid cutting muscle itself. In so doing, we are trying to eliminate pain and scarring while allowing a much faster recovery. Pain Ends Here… Less or “Minimally Invasive Procedures” result in less post-procedural pain and discomfort. Published medical research tells us that patients experience less discomfort and pain and at the same time need smaller doses of pain relieving medicine than patients undergoing traditional surgeries. Our goal is to avoid unnecessary prescription treatment. Minimal Scar Tissue Traditional surgeries require a large incisions which result in large scars. Minimally Invasive Procedures have smaller incisions – approximately 3/4″ – resulting smaller scarring, less pain and a faster recovery. Outpatient Service & Back Home you Go! Our medical philosophy gets you back home right away. Most of treatments allow for a quick recovery in our outpatient surgery center which empowers you to be back home on the same day or even just a few hours later. In most cases, our patients return to work and the normal activities of daily life within a day or two. YOU SHOULD KNOW Our board-certified physicians will take the time to explain ALL the facts to you personally.
