When going into surgery, you’re literally putting your life in the surgeon’s hands. As a top spine surgeon Orlando residents trust, ACME Spine & Orthopedics is intimately aware of how much patient recovery and the outcome of the surgery is correlated with choosing the right spine surgeon. Choosing the right spine surgeon for your surgery goes further than whether or not the surgeon is licensed – to optimize recovery, you need someone experienced in your specific surgeries and who you feel comfortable with.
Why Is It Important To Choose The Right Spine Specialist?
The success of your treatment and how well you recover is directly related to the person you trust with treatment. At ACME Spine & Orthopedics, our board-certified doctors Barry Schapiro and Javier Figueroa are leaders in their respective fields of orthopedic and neurosurgery with advanced expertise in spine care.
Choosing an experienced specialist who performs many spine procedures on a regular basis is essential. Experienced specialists who often perform the type of procedure you require will have a higher rate of surgical success and lower risk. At ACME Spine & Orthopedics, Doctors Barry Schapiro and Javier Figueroa regularly perform a range of orthopedic and spinal procedures, staying up-to-date (or even innovating) on the latest techniques and specializing in minimally invasive options for better pain management and speedier recoveries.
However, experience isn’t the only thing that impacts treatment and recovery – you also need a surgeon with a good bedside manner who you can trust to communicate all options and risks. Having a surgeon who you can communicate with and who can guide you through the process helps patients have realistic expectations of their outcomes and supports optimal results.
