Endoscopic spine surgery

This method allows us to operate through tiny incisions using a specially designed camera and unique instruments. It’s one of the minimally invasive surgeries we offer, including robotic-assisted procedures which uses fewer, smaller incisions and cause less disruption to healthy tissue.

Stereotactic radiosurgery

Using TrueBeam technology, we provide a noninvasive alternative to traditional surgery that delivers radiation to spinal tumors. It’s one of the many ways we strive to provide the most forward-looking, innovative spine care in the greater Charleston area. All of this is part of our commitment to help you get the best results.
