An Advanced, Team-Based Approach to Spine Care
Soft cushiony discs sit between each bone in your neck. Over time, these discs break down from normal wear and tear. This is called degenerative disc disease. It is a common cause of neck and back pain.
Degenerative disc disease in the neck can also occur with other spine conditions, like a herniated disk. Our spine specialists use advanced imaging to find the source of your neck pain and create a personalized treatment plan.
We offer a wide range of nonsurgical treatment options, but if your pain does not improve, our spine surgeons find the right surgical procedure for you.
