What is a Minimally Invasive Spine Specialist?

Thursday, April 24, 2008 by Indiana Spine Group

A minimally invasive spine specialist is a physician that specializes in the treatment of patients with spine disorders.  The focus of their patient care is to diagnose the cause of the spine problem, and then to treat the specific cause of the problem which will usually alleviate the symptoms; i.e. back pain.

 

A physician who is a minimally invasive spine specialist is usually board-certified in anesthesia as well as pain management.  Other terms used for this specialty include pain management, interventional spine specialist or minimally interventional spine specialist.  Regardless of the term used, key is physician’s board certification.

 

At Indiana Spine Group, there are three board certified minimally invasive spine specialists. They are Kevin Macadaeg, MD, Jonathan Gentile, MD, and John Arbuckle, MD.
