Introduction

Spinal Surgery is our passion. Spinal surgeons usually have a background in orthopaedic and trauma surgery or neurosurgery as there is an overlap in training in both these specialities. In order to gain proficiency in the complex field of spinal surgery several years of fellowship are usually necessary which only individuals of above average dedication are willing to undertake. Our spinal unit is proud to have grown into an exceptionally dedicated team exclusively caring for patients with spinal problems and is internationally recognised as one of the leaders in spinal research, surgery and training.
