The Spine Clinic at Saint Margaret Mercy

HAMMOND - The new Spine Clinic at Saint Margaret Mercy’s Hammond Campus offers a comprehensive multidisciplinary approach to patients suffering from problems relating to the spine. Orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Nitin Khanna, offers an integrated approach to patients, with surgical and non-surgical options such as pain management and physical therapy.

The field of spine surgery has seen many dramatic advances over recent years. We are now able to perform many surgical procedures through minimally invasive approaches. Recovery is faster, and postoperative scarring and discomfort are minimal.

The advent of advanced fusion techniques has improved the results for our patients in recent years. We have also made many advances in “motion sparing” techniques that can lead to dramatic pain relief without having to perform a fusion operation.
