At the Center for the Functional Restoration of the Spine, we believe surgical intervention should be a last resort, only undertaken if other, less invasive treatments are not successful. Often, we see patients who have been treated too aggressively in the past and now need revision surgery. In other cases, the minimally invasive spinal surgery Dr. Menkowitz and Dr. Paragioudakis are so respected for performing.

Harnessing Leading-Edge Technology for Your Benefit

Our patients experience the benefits of the latest, state-of-the-art instruments and devices, notably the Globus Medical ExcelsiusGPS® robotic surgery system. This sets us apart as one of the distinguished practices in the United States that utilizes advanced technology for spinal surgery. In conjunction with our cutting-edge equipment and techniques, our team excels in offering specialized revision surgery solutions, tailored to meet the unique needs of individuals facing the complexities of failed back surgery syndrome.
