About

Experience, trust and a personalized approach

With many years of experience in brain, nerve and spine surgery, I apply modern microsurgical techniques in the diagnosis and treatment of spinal conditions. By listening carefully to each patient's complaints and lifestyle, I build an evidence-based treatment plan that avoids unnecessary surgery.

For conditions such as lumbar and cervical disc herniation, spinal stenosis, spondylolisthesis and sciatica, I first evaluate non-surgical options and, when needed, use minimally invasive and microsurgical operations so my patients can return to daily life as quickly as possible.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to your questions

Does a herniated disc always require surgery?
No. The vast majority of patients recover with non-surgical methods such as physical therapy, medication and injections. Surgery is considered only in specific cases and as a last resort.
What are the advantages of minimally invasive (microsurgical) surgery?
It means a smaller incision, less tissue damage, less pain and a much faster recovery. Most patients return to daily life quickly.
How do I make an appointment?
You can reach us by phone or WhatsApp in the contact section, or simply fill in the contact form.
What should I bring to my appointment?
Bringing any previous MRI, CT and X-ray images together with a list of your current medications speeds up the assessment.
