When Do You Need a Neurosurgeon or Spine Surgeon?

Surgical evaluation may be required in the following situations:

• Severe neck or back pain associated with weakness or numbness
• Compression of spinal nerves or the spinal cord
• Difficulty walking or loss of motor control
• Radiating nerve pain to the arm or leg
• Failure of conservative or medical treatment
• Traumatic spinal injuries
• Brain or spinal tumors
• Brain hemorrhage or vascular abnormalities
• Progressive neurological deterioration affecting daily activities

Spine Surgery Services at Healing Clinic

1. Endoscopic Spine Surgery

Endoscopic spine surgery represents one of the most advanced minimally invasive techniques in spinal surgery and aims to minimize surgical trauma, preserve surrounding tissues, reduce post-operative pain, and accelerate recovery. This technique is commonly used for lumbar and cervical disc herniation, nerve root compression, and selected cases of spinal canal stenosis.

2. Microsurgical Spine Surgery

Microsurgical spine procedures utilize surgical microscopes to achieve maximum precision and are commonly performed for cervical and lumbar disc herniation, nerve compression syndromes, spinal canal stenosis, and selected spinal tumors. These procedures allow accurate decompression while minimizing neurological risk.

3. Open Spine Surgery

Open spinal surgery is reserved for complex or advanced conditions and includes spinal cord decompression, correction of spinal deformities, and management of severe spinal trauma and fractures.

4. Spinal Fixation and Stabilization Surgery

Spinal fixation procedures are indicated in cases of spinal instability, spondylolisthesis, vertebral fractures, and severe spinal deformities. These surgeries involve the use of screws, rods, and modern spinal fixation systems to restore spinal stability and protect neural structures.

Brain Surgery Services at Healing Clinic

1. Brain Tumor Surgery

Management of benign and malignant brain tumors and pituitary tumors. Surgical planning is performed with high precision to preserve neurological function.

2. Microsurgical Brain Procedures

Microsurgical techniques are used for brain tumors, intracranial hemorrhage, and structural neurological abnormalities. These procedures aim to minimize neurological damage while achieving optimal surgical outcomes.

3. Neuro-Endovascular (Catheter-Based) Brain Procedures

Minimally invasive catheter-based procedures performed without open surgery, including treatment of cerebral aneurysms, management of cerebral arteriovenous malformations, and selected cases of intracranial hemorrhage.

Peripheral Nerve Surgery

The department also provides surgical management for peripheral nerve compression syndromes, entrapment neuropathies, and traumatic nerve injuries. These procedures aim to reduce neuropathic pain, improve sensation, and restore nerve function when possible.

Surgical Decision-Making Approach

Surgical intervention is considered only after comprehensive neurological and spinal evaluation, detailed review of imaging studies, multidisciplinary team discussion, and confirmation that surgery will result in meaningful functional improvement.

Post-Operative Care and Rehabilitation

Following surgical intervention, a structured rehabilitation plan is implemented, including physical therapy, neuro-rehabilitation, and pain management, aiming to accelerate recovery, reduce complications, and restore mobility and neurological function.

Multidisciplinary Surgical Team

Healing Clinic brings together a comprehensive team of neurosurgeons, spine surgeons, neurologists, physical therapists specialized in neuro-rehabilitation, and pain management specialists. All team members work within an integrated system to ensure optimal patient care before and after surgery.

Our Goal in Neurosurgery & Spine Surgery

Our objectives include selecting the most appropriate surgical approach for each case, achieving the best possible neurological and functional outcomes, minimizing surgical risks and complications, and improving long-term quality of life.
