We Have Got Your Back: Peace of Mind in Spinal Care

At D.I.S.C., we understand that each patient deserves highly personalized care. From diagnosis to intervention, our team provides each patient with the best possible options to ensure minimal distress, a reliable outcome, and a rapid recovery from spine surgery.

Back pain is among the most common reasons that patients seek medical attention. While back pain is nearly universal, its causes and most appropriate solutions are widely varied. Depending on the condition and lifestyle of the patient, different medical options are more effective than others. With our wide-array of diagnostic and treatment procedures, we are committed to finding the right solutions for the right patient. Providing an unmatched continuity of care, the specialist team at D.I.S.C. works cohesively to relieve pain and restore function as conservatively and efficiently as possible.

When back surgery is the answer, we ensure that our patients are brought through the process with the absolute minimum of physical and mental stress. Our board -certified, fellowship-trained neurological and orthopedic spine surgeons rank among the nation’s top physicians in the field of minimally invasive spine surgery. The collective knowledge and experience of the D.I.S.C. team, set in one of the most technologically advanced surgery centers ever built, enable us to treat patients on a level that is truly redefining the experience of spine surgery and recovery. On a routine basis, the physicians at D.I.S.C. are performing spinal procedures that once required major incisions and lengthy hospital stays on a minimally invasive, outpatient basis.

Through our multidisciplinary, integrated approach, we have greatly increased patient safety and decreased the risk of complications and infections sometimes involved with spinal surgery. All of this, coupled with our highly attentive and compassionate staff, instills in our patients an informed, calm and confident mindset. Our 98% positive patient satisfaction surveys display the tangible outcome of our efforts.

Advances in Technology Create a Revolution in Spinal Surgery

Utilizing specially designed instruments and implants, our surgeons perform spine surgery with smaller incisions and less disruption to the surrounding tissue and muscles. This expertise results in less blood loss and a faster, less painful recovery period.

With Dr. Bray among the team of original designers, the Zeiss Microscope was specifically developed for “micro” spinal procedures. Now in its third generation, this high-powered-microscope offers a pristine 3D view that can be magnified up to 30 times, providing the surgeons with improved vision and access to the surgical site.

Spine in an Outpatient Environment Improves Patient Care

D.I.S.C. is one of the few facilities in the country uniquely designed to handle complex spinal cases routinely on an outpatient basis. Patients can often leave on the same afternoon of back surgery or stay overnight in one of our private recovery rooms. This is accomplished by using minimally invasive techniques and improving pain management, patient education, and nurse-patient involvement. Providing patients with comprehensive, personalized care, D.I.S.C. represents a step forward into a new generation of medical care.
