Is Laser Spine Surgery For You?
While laser spine surgery has been around since the 1960s, recently it has been getting more attention.

Dr. Kris Radcliff, Orthopedic Surgeon with the Rothman Institute, explains that lasers may not always be the best option when it comes to minimally invasive spine surgery. Yet, new minimally invasive procedures can lead to better outcomes.
