Conservative Care, Minimally Invasive Surgery

Dr. Hunt provides conservative care first – surgery is a last resort. He will take all the time necessary to listen to your needs, concerns and goals, and will work with you toward the best non-surgical treatment possible.

If your condition does require surgery, Dr. Hunt specializes in minimally invasive surgery. Using innovative techniques, cutting edge technology, and intimate knowledge of important anatomy, he will treat your spinal condition without causing undue injury to the surrounding soft tissues. Some benefits of minimally invasive surgical techniques include:

• Smaller incisions
• Less scar tissue
• Less blood loss
• Less soft tissue damage
• Less post-operative pain
• Quicker recovery

There is life after back surgery!
