LSI’s Spine Surgeons are the Leaders in the Field of Endoscopic Spine Surgery
When it comes to surgery for relieving pain in the back and neck, endoscopic care is becoming more and more popular every year. But while other hospitals and surgical centers are just catching on, the spine surgeons at the Laser Spine Institute are ahead of the curve. Together these nine surgeons perform more than 400 surgeries a month, more than any other spine clinic in the world. Our chief surgeon and founder, Dr. James St. Louis has perfected endoscopic spine surgery over the years, and he trains each of the spine surgeons that come to work at LSI. The product of this dedication and experience is consistently successful results on a wide range of problems including herniated discs, bone spurs, sciatica, foraminal stenosis, pinched nerves, and more.
Of course, each of our spine surgeons was a successful stand out in the world of orthopedic surgery before joining our staff, and they’ve continued to earn accolades since then. Here are a few facts that illustrate that point:
- Dr. St. Louis was named Physician of the Year in 2005 and 2008 by the American Association of Physician Specialists.
- Dr. Craig Wolff was named One of the Best Doctors in America for 2005-06 by Best Doctors Inc.
- Dr. Kevin Scott is a Fellow of American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons.
- Dr. Timothy Luke was named America’s Top Orthopedist for 2008.
- Dr. Vernon Morris received the AMA Award for Physician Recognition in four separate years.
But what’s more important than all the accolades is our spine surgeons’ continued commitment to excellent patient care. Each is dedicated to making neck and back pain a thing of the past for every patient that walks through the door. And through the amazing advancements of endoscopy, our spine surgeons can do that without many of the long recovery and risks associated with traditional open-back surgery.
