Endoscopic spine surgery has a steep learning curve and surgeons learning minimally invasive endoscopic procedures always begin with the less critical lumbar/lower spine area and then work up the spine as they gain experience and undergo additional training. A limited number of orthopedic spine surgeons are certified to do cervical endoscopic procedures. Spine Centers of America surgeons are certified to perform cervical endoscopic procedures, and Dr. Bryan Massoud, a board certified orthopedic spine surgeon, has been an industry leader in this area. Over the past several years he has trained surgeons to perform cervical procedures as well as worked with colleagues to develop new techniques to improve results. So when surgery is recommended for persistent serious back pain or neck pain, tap into Spine Centers of America’s extensive expertise.
