Relief from Degenerative Disc Disease

When chronic back pain due to degenerative disc disease impacts your quality of life, artificial cervical disc replacement surgery may offer a solution. Our expert spinal surgeons perform disc replacement surgery to improve your ability to bend, twist and move without pain.

During disc replacement surgery, a spinal surgeon replaces the worn-out disc with a plastic and metal device. We recommend this surgery, when only one disc in your back has damage. If more are damaged, we recommend spinal fusion surgery instead.

We use a team approach to give you exceptional spinal care from diagnosis through recovery.

You go home sooner and have better outcomes with our Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) approach.
