Washington University spine neurosurgeons and orthopedic surgeons are recognized as national leaders in the treatment of disorders of the spine, spinal cord and nervous system. They are dedicated to relieving pain and improving quality of life for patients with a wide range of conditions, including:
Degenerative Spinal Conditions
- Back pain
- Herniated discs
- Neck pain
- Spinal arthritis
- Spine compression
- And related conditions
Spine Trauma
- Spinal cord injury
- Spinal fractures
Spinal Deformities
- Scoliosis
- Tumors of the spine and spinal cord
- And other spinal deformities present from birth or developed later in life
Our spine specialists treat a large number of patients in St. Louis, from throughout the region and beyond. The team is equally skilled in treating straightforward spinal disorders, such as herniated discs and back pain, as they are in treating complicated disorders, such as tumors of the spine.
For non-surgical treatment of spinal disorders, our team collaborates with physical and occupational therapy, rehabilitation and physiatry services, and pain management. Washington University spine surgeons are associated with The Rehabilitation Institute of St. Louis, providing world-leading services for patients with spinal disorders.
