Neurosurgery

COMMON PROCEDURES

Neurosurgery is the specialized surgery on the nervous system. This medical specialty is focused on the diagnosis and treatment of patients with injury to, or diseases/disorders of the brain, spinal cord and spinal column.

Our neurosurgeon at Mackinaw Surgery Center provies pain management through pain blocks as well as spinal decompression and spinal fusions. We work with patients with a number of pain conerns including neck and back pain. Some of the minimally invasive back pain surgeries include spinal cord stimulators and anterior cervical discectomy fusion (ACDF). Patients see pain reflief much quicker with these minimally invasive procedures than traditional open surgery.

BENEFITS OF CHOOSING MACKINAW SURGERY CENTER

An ambulatory surgery center (ASC) offers many advantages over a traditional hospital. We founded Mackinaw Sugery Center to provide the best care possible to our patients and their families.

BETTER CARE

With higher nurse to patient ratios than a hospital, our staff can focus more on your care.

REDUCED INFECTION

When a patient is ill, we reschedule appointments to reduce the risk of spreading infection or cross-contamination.

PAIN BLOCKS

Our post-surgery pain blocks mean less pain and decreased opioid use during recovery.

MORE CONVENIENT

All surgeries at an ASC are scheduled so procedures are rarely delayed or rescheduled because of an emergency case.

LOWER COST

With less overhead than a hospital and shorter stays, cost savings are passed on to patients for lower out-of-pocket expenses.

BETTER OUTCOMES

With convenient scheduling, more attentive staff, low risk of infection, specialized procedures and lower cost, patients have a much better experience.
