About Dr Steel
Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery
MIIS helps to minimise post-operative pain, allows patients to be discharged from hospital earlier, and return to their normal activities sooner because there is less disruption to the spinal muscles
Disc replacement Surgery
In suitable cases patients who require removal of their discs to decompress the spinal cord and nerves can have an artificial disc inserted rather than perform a spinal fusion. This can help minimize the risk of developing problems at the adjacent levels following a fusion procedure.
Spine Fusion
Fusion surgery is commonly performed in the spine to alleviate pain and rectify deformity and is highly effective . Dr steel uses minimally invasive and percutaneous techniques to perform fusion surgery. He has performed more than 2000 fusion operations.
