The MEND Procedure

Lower Back & Sciatica Relief with Minimally Invasive Surgery

Why Fuse When You Can MEND?

The MEND Procedure is a truly minimally invasive solution for effectively treating back pain and sciatica. Using a tiny 1/8-inch opening, the surgeon can access the affected area of the spine without harming surrounding tissues. This gentle approach reduces post-procedure discomfort and helps you return to your normal lifestyle much faster than traditional surgical methods.

We believe it’s important for you to be an active participant in your own care. Understanding what to expect can ease anxiety, make your experience more comfortable, and may even help speed your recovery.

Unlike spinal fusion, the MEND Procedure preserves the spine’s natural mobility by avoiding hardware such as screws or rods. Our advanced endoscopic spine surgery techniques have transformed the treatment of back and neck pain. In experienced hands, most procedures take less than an hour, and patients are often walking within just a few hours.
