Experience Unmatched Spine Care at Our Comprehensive Center for Unparalleled Relief and Recovery
Our Comprehensive Spine Center has eased pain for thousands of patients and helped them lead their best lives. We are a multispecialty team of experts with unparalleled experience and highly subspecialized training. That means we not only have neurosurgeons and orthopedic surgeons who are dedicated to spinal medicine and surgery, but also physiatry and pain management experts. When it comes to premier back and neck centers, our team is the most comprehensive with unmatched expertise.
What does a Comprehensive Spine Center treat?
We are on hand to treat the full range of spinal disorders that people experience. This includes everything from run-of-the-mill back pain to complicated spinal tumors. We have an excellent track record when it comes to herniated discs, degenerative conditions, vascular malformations, scoliosis, and more. We step in when patients have life threatening conditions. We also step in when patients simply have pain they don’t want to live with—sometimes you already know the source of the pain, and sometimes you need a doctor to pinpoint the source and explain your options. Either way, we know the role of a back and neck center is to offer a solution and provide top-tier care.
What is Our Back and Neck Center’s Approach to Treatment?
One benefit of being a Comprehensive Spine Center is that we are not biased when it comes to treatment options. We don’t offer just one type of surgery, and so we don’t shoehorn our patients into one path that may or may not make sense for them. Instead, we look at the whole range of back and neck treatment options and determine the best fit for your individual case, pain levels, and goals.
“I think there are certainly surgeons who are known for being quick to cut,” explains Roy D. Vingan, MD, a Board Certified Neurosurgeon and founding member of New Jersey Brain and Spine. “That’s certainly not our reputation. We’ve always looked at how do we get a patient better, period.”
Indeed, one of our roles when patients come in to see us is to determine which specialists within our comprehensive spine center will provide the best care for them. That’s easy to do when our specialists are all working together and used to collaborating.
Improving Quality of Life and Decreasing Back Pain
We improve patients’ quality of life by taking a thoughtful approach from day one, from our very first appointment with you all the way through the recovery and rehabilitation process.
We provide unparalleled relief and recovery because we start with an understanding of the patient’s current quality of life and their goals for the future.
“I want a patient to come in and tell me, how does their pain complaint interfere with their daily lives, and how can I best rehabilitate them?” said Paul S. Chirichella, MD, a Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Specialist at our Comprehensive Spine Center.
We focus on getting the right diagnosis and then moving patients through the right treatment plan for them. Sometimes this means surgery, and sometimes this means physical therapy. Oftentimes, a treatment plan consists of several different components, from rehab and medication to procedures and lifestyle changes.
How Does a Comprehensive Spine Center Streamline Your Experience?
We’re mindful of how many appointments patients make and how many specialists patients seek out to get the solutions and relief they need. We work to simplify that experience for people seeking back and neck treatment. When you’re already in pain, the last thing you want to do is spend more time and money seeking opinions from multiple offices or medical centers. Our doctors include specialists across different areas so that you can get the expertise you need at one place. It also means that our specialists are used to talking to each other—behind the scenes, they will consult and discuss your case so that you don’t have to start over each time you see a new doctor about your issue.
This entire approach relates to our focus on compassionate care. We have been offering personalized treatment to patients for over 30 years, and we’ve learned about not just the physical pain points, but the emotional and logistical ones that often cause additional stress. We built a comprehensive spine center composed of the leaders in their field because diagnosis, treatment, and recovery are all complex processes that require a thoughtful approach. We also keep this in mind when we talk to patients, taking time to explain and discuss every step.
High-Quality, Specialized Care for Recovery and Relief
Surgery is just one component of our Comprehensive Spine Center’s expertise.
Our team also includes interventional pain management specialists. Pain is the reason that many patients come to us in the first place, and we take it seriously. Whether you end up needing a surgical approach or not, our pain management specialists take your medical history and other nuances into account. In cases where surgery is warranted, we understand that patients have short-term needs to recover from procedure-related pain. There are also cases where a long-term medication plan will make sense.
Meanwhile, our Board certified neurosurgeons have fellowship training in all aspects of spinal care, and our Board certified orthopedists specialize in the correction of spinal deformities, degenerative disorders, and sports injuries. We truly pride ourselves on being able to assemble the best team of experts for your condition–whether it’s from a recent accident, a gradual injury, or a problem from birth or childhood.
Whether the goal is to manage symptoms or actually move into a pain free future, patients can expect unmatched care at our Comprehensive Spine Center.
