The UAMS Health Spine team takes a multidisciplinary approach to treating spine conditions. We are dedicated to identifying, diagnosing, and treating the source of pain. This includes a thorough evaluation, selecting the best treatment options, and utilizing the most advanced technology. Our treatment approach always begins with the least invasive option depending on the severity of your symptoms. When surgery is required, the most cutting-edge, minimally invasive techniques are used, often including computerized stereotactic image-guided surgery.
