Our specialists at the London Spine Unit, Harley Street Hospital are leading teaching hospital consultants. They are highly trained in the management of all spine disorders.
In fact, our doctors discuss the most complex cases at regular multidisciplinary meetings. These meetings involve spine surgeons, radiologists, neurologists, rheumatologists, pain specialists, physiotherapists, and others. The goal is presenting clinical information and imaging, so these specialists can contribute with their valuable point of view.
The physicians in our institution devide a treatment plan for each patient. It starts with the most conservative approach and non-invasive methods of treatment. However, some specific cases require surgical intervention.
Our team is integrated by the following specialists:
