For patients with neck and back pain or those with spine disorders, it is critically important to know that not all patients require surgery at the time of diagnosis. A careful analysis of the individual patient’s age, medical condition, type and severity symptoms must be conducted by an expert surgeon experienced in the management of overall “spine health” to come up with an individualized treatment plan tailored for each patient.
