In Dr. Davidson’s Own Words ...

“Over time, we have seen how minimally invasive spinal surgical techniques have led to a decrease in the length of certain surgeries, hospitalization time, re-admissions to the hospital and the risks of postoperative infection. All of these improvements have increased patient satisfaction.”

“If the progress that has been made in this field, just in the last decade, is any indication, I would predict continuing, significant advances — not only in surgical approaches, but also in technology that helps the spine surgeon accomplish his or her goals. It’s next to impossible not to be excited about what’s around the corner in our journey of progress.”

Dr. Davidson has been a colleague of mine for about five years. During this time, I have referred many patients to him for spinal surgery. He is a very kind and caring physician that believes that patients must be well informed and comfortable with their decision for surgery. I can attest to this because I have been a patient of his. He truly cares about his patients.
