Top Los Angeles Spine and Orthopedic Clinic, DOCS Health, Introduces Advanced Endoscopic Spine Surgery Utilizing Arthrex Technology
Los Angeles, CA —DOCS Health, a leading spine and orthopedic clinic in Los Angeles, is excited to announce the expansion of its minimally invasive spinal surgery program by incorporating Arthrex's groundbreaking endoscopic spine system. This advanced technology enables surgeons to provide patients with a state-of-the-art alternative for spine care, offering improved precision, faster recovery times, and reduced postoperative discomfort.
The Arthrex endoscopic spine system is revolutionizing the way spine surgeries are performed by providing exceptional visualization and high-definition video from within the spinal canal during spinal decompression surgery. For over 40 years, Arthrex has been a pioneer in arthroscopic surgery technology, developing more than 20,000 innovative products that allow surgeons to treat joint and spine pathologies with minimally invasive approaches.
With this cutting-edge equipment, DOCS Health can now perform the same effective procedures they have provided for years, but with an even smaller incision and reduced trauma to surrounding tissues. The system's high-definition imaging allows surgeons to see critical anatomy with exceptional clarity, ultimately enhancing surgical precision and reducing complications.
"By using Arthrex's technology, we're able to perform endoscopic spine surgery through a tiny, 7mm incision, guiding surgical instruments to precisely remove damaged discs, bone spurs, or other problematic tissue," says Dr. Brian Perri, leading orthopedic spine surgeon at DOCS Health. "This approach minimizes muscle damage, reduces the amount of bone removal needed, and leads to a quicker, smoother recovery for our patients. Our goal is always to provide the most advanced, least invasive treatment options to ensure patients get back to their normal lives as quickly and safely as possible."
Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery: A New Era in Spine Care
The adoption of Arthrex technology by DOCS Health offers numerous benefits for patients, including reduced muscle and tissue trauma, shorter hospital stays, decreased postoperative pain, and accelerated recovery. Traditional open spine surgery often involves large incisions that can lead to prolonged recovery times and potential complications. In contrast, the Arthrex endoscopic system allows the procedure to be performed through a small incision, often resulting in faster healing and a more comfortable experience for the patient.
Endoscopic spine surgery is ideal for treating conditions such as herniated discs, spinal stenosis, sciatica, and other degenerative spine issues. By utilizing a tiny endoscope to visualize and navigate the surgical area, the procedure significantly reduces the risk of infection and minimizes damage to muscles and surrounding tissues. As a result, patients can often return to normal activities much sooner than with traditional surgery.
Revolutionary Patient Care at DOCS Health
DOCS Health is committed to bringing the latest advancements in medical technology to its patients. The addition of Arthrex's endoscopic spine system further establishes the clinic as a premier provider of minimally invasive surgical solutions for spinal conditions in Los Angeles.
"Our team of highly trained orthopedic surgeons, neurosurgeons, and pain specialists is dedicated to improving the quality of life for our patients by providing the most effective, cutting-edge treatments available," says Dr. Perri. "The integration of Arthrex technology into our spine surgery program is a reflection of our commitment to staying at the forefront of medical advancements, ultimately delivering the best possible outcomes for our patients."
