ST. CHARLES, Mo. – SSM Health Neurosciences has established a complex spine practice in St. Charles County to offer a range of services from basic conservative care to significant adult deformity corrections.
Dr. David Neils, a neurosurgeon serving patients at SSM Health St. Joseph Hospital in St. Charles and Lake St. Louis, emphasizes that residents in St. Charles County do not need to travel outside the area for comprehensive care.
Neils highlights the commitment of the hospital to bring cutting-edge care to local patients, making recoveries faster and easier by receiving treatment close to home. Advanced technologies are utilized to enhance outcomes and reduce recovery times, such as computerized surgery and optical tracking software.
Back and spine surgeries are personalized to each patient’s unique needs, often following a referral from their primary care physician after exploring other treatment options. Neils explains that the goal is to create a treatment plan that aligns with the patient’s quality of life and imaging results to ultimately improve their well-being.
