Dr. Smith is the Director of the Failed Back Institute. He understands that back or neck pain following a failed surgery, or multiple surgeries, can be severely debilitating. Frustrated, these patients often find themselves with no where to turn for relief.
Over the past several years great advances have been made in the field of spine surgery. Minimally invasive techniques, biological materials and novel implants have all made surgery easier and more effective. Unfortunately, many doctors still treat patients using outdated fusion techniques that provide poor outcomes. Failure to perform the correct procedure, performing it poorly, or failure to heal can all lead to chronic and unrelenting pain. All too often the operating surgeon dismisses these patients to a pain doctor where their problems are unlikely to be resolved. That is why its called pain management.
