Is Your Spine or Back Pain Limiting Your Life?
Living with chronic back pain can be debilitating, preventing you from enjoying simple daily activities and diminishing your quality of life. Many fear the prospect of traditional open surgery due to the risks involved, while others have been delaying treatment, hoping the pain will simply go away.
At Achieve Spine and Orthopaedic Centre, we understand your concerns and our spinal surgeon, Dr Wu, is experienced in open procedures, pain procedures and endoscopic procedures.
Focused on patient-centric care, we are here to offer a second opinion or a different approach to resolve your pain effectively.
Traditional open surgery isn’t the only option
At Achieve Spine and Orthopaedic Centre, we can convert up to 80% of our load of traditional open spinal surgery to minimally invasive/endoscopic spine surgery.
Benefits of endoscopic spine surgery for spine conditions
Quicker recovery time, shorter hospital stay
Less susceptible to scarring and infection
Option of local anesthesia with sedation
Safer option for elderly or immunity-compromised individuals
FAQ Section
Recent systematic reviews and meta-analyses of a vast pool of data indicate that endoscopic spine surgery offers a more favourable safety profile compared to open surgery.
We advise consulting with Dr Wu, our spinal surgeon at Achieve Spine & Orthopaedic, for a detailed diagnosis to determine if you are suitable for the procedure.
Both artificial disc replacement and endoscopic spine surgery are designed to maintain motion and prevent adjacent segment disease in fusion procedures. There is some overlap in the indications for artificial disc replacement and endoscopic spine surgery. Consult with Dr Wu to explore if it could be a potential alternative treatment to artificial disc replacement (ADR) and anterior cervical decompression and fusion (ACDF) procedures.
Back and limb pain involve complex pain pathways, and not all cases necessitate surgery. Conservative treatments and pain procedures continue to be effective options for many spinal conditions. We are experienced in pain procedures, while endoscopic spine surgery acts as a bridge between pain procedures and open surgery. Consult with Dr Wu to determine the most viable option for your condition.
