Back pain is the second most common type of pain experienced in the United States, after headache. It has a wide range of causes, such as injuries to the spine, degeneration of the discs located between the vertebrae of the spine as they break down with age, a pinched nerve, and muscle tension.

Our specialists include neurosurgeons and orthopedic surgeons trained in treating the conditions that cause back pain, including disorders of the spine such as degenerative disc disease, spondylolisthesis, and spinal stenosis.
