Minimally Invasive Image-Guided Spine Surgery

Our Spinal Care Approach

MacKay Spine & Brain offers assessment, education, and recommendations directly for you, as an individual. Our mission is to help you get better by guiding you through non-operative management; however, if, or when, surgery is indicated, we offer minimally invasive and image-guided surgical techniques that help you recover function as quickly as possible, working with you through the recovery process back to function.

If you are looking for a second opinion or a specialist to talk to you, please don’t hesitate to reach out so we can get you back to a healthier and happier version of you!
