Patients who undergo back surgery have high hopes for increased mobility and relief from discomfort. Unfortunately, some back surgeries do not provide relief from pain, instead resulting in a condition known as “failed back laminectomy syndrome.” Needless to say, this is demoralizing and patients are left wondering if there is any viable option left open to them.
Dr. Skaribas and Nobilis Health offer that option.*
The mission of spinal cord stimulation is to intercept a pain signal on its way to the brain. An international expert in Spinal Cord Stimulation, Dr. Skaribas uses a minimally invasive procedure to insert a small transmitter, similar to a pacemaker, which emits a low frequency signal designed to overtake and cancel out pain impulses.*
For a large number of patients, this can provide the longest lasting relief from chronic pain due to failed back surgery. Spinal stimulation is minimally invasive and recovery is swift.*
Nobilis Health manages more than 60 ambulatory care centers, clinics, and hospitals in 7 states, including First Surgical Hospital and Hermann Drive Surgical Hospital.
Nobilis Health partners with board-certified, fellowship-trained surgeons who focus on minimally invasive surgery. We empower our partner physicians with the cutting-edge technology and highly specialized staff they need to deliver the highest quality care to patients.
It’s amazing in this era of advanced medical care that anyone would resign themselves to a life of discomfort if not outright suffering.
The experts at Nobilis have helped thousands of patients return to their life and they’re are ready to help you too.*
*Results will vary by person and are based upon the patient, the surgery type and the compliance with the aftercare
program. As with any medical procedure or surgery, there are specific risks and possible complications.
