In a recent episode of “The Spine Pod”, hosts Courtney Schutze and Brady Riesgraf speak with Arthrex faculty surgeon Christopher Yeung, MD (Phoenix, AZ), a nationally recognized leader in ultra-minimally invasive spine care.
Dr. Yeung discusses why outpatient spine surgery is gaining momentum and how his experience treating professional athletes has shaped his approach to recovery, function and surgical decision-making.
Additionally, Dr. Yeung recounts treating a former NFL quarterback who returned to coaching just hours after endoscopic spine surgery. It’s stories like that, he shared, that continue to energize him—and why he’s working alongside Arthrex to train surgeons around the world in this ultra-minimally invasive approach.
