Paul Slosar, MD

Welcome

I may not be your typical spine surgeon. I am personable, interactive, and enjoy spending a considerable amount of time getting to know my patients. I want to understand you the person as well as I understand your spine. I find getting to know my patients personally is as interesting as the surgery I perform. The more I understand you, the better I can understand how your spine problem affects your life. It also helps me make the right recommendation to you as an individual, not just your spine.

Becker's Ortho and Spine Review

In contrast to most surgeons, I focus first on trying to find a non-surgical option for my patients. I am lucky enough to have some of the best spinal injection specialists and pain management doctors in the country as my partners. Most of the patients I see have a problem that we can solve with a simple treatment or injection rather than surgery. If surgery is necessary, I strive to perform the least invasive, smallest "footprint" operation that will best treat your injury.

I spend a significant amount of time learning about new and exciting technologies that have made modern spine surgery one of the fastest growing and most technologically advanced areas in all of medicine. Although I am sorry that you have to come see me (or visit my website) because of your back pain, take comfort in the fact that we have so much more to offer you to solve your pain successfully than any other time in history.

Please have a look around my website. I hope it helps you learn more about my practice and understand more about your spine."
