About this specialty
Orthopaedic care here focuses on the spine: back and neck pain, spinal injuries, conditions requiring surgical assessment or non-surgical treatment, and advanced surgery for spinal disease and trauma.
Spine surgery is among the operations for which a second opinion is most often advised, because a meaningful proportion of cases improve without it. Our consultants review the MRI alongside the clinical examination and explain whether surgery is necessary now, and what non-surgical alternatives exist.
