Anders Cohen is a recognized specialist in state-of-the-art minimally invasive surgical techniques that are leaps and bounds ahead of the traditional techniques. These procedures are preferable because they are less risky, easier to recover from, and may be less expensive as well.
One such technique is a special minimally invasive form of lumbar discectomy. Lumbar discectomy is a procedure performed to relieve pressure present on certain parts of the spinal cord or on spinal nerves by intervertebral discs or bone spurs. More traditional forms of this surgery involve making deep incisions all the way down to the spine, then cutting or stripping of the muscles in order to expose the afflicted areas. Dr. Anders Cohen, through the use of thoroughly modern techniques and equipment, is able to perform lumbar discectomies while making very small incisions instead. In doing so, he presents a truly minimally invasive solution for back pain and related conditions.
