In honor of National Doctor’s Day on March 30th we will be recognizing the experience and expertise of our surgeons by posting a video series featuring many of our surgeons. In the videos our surgeons tell their story of why they dedicated a decade and a half to gaining the education, training, and skills necessary to become board certified and fellowship trained spine surgeons.
