Our first decade was spent with great success specializing in cosmetic surgery, soon after we added dental services and now realising how unaffordable spinal surgery is for the under-insured or for a patient with no insurance… we are pleased to announce we are adding a neurosurgeon to our team of board certified surgeons, Dr Mario Salmon M.D. We spent a total of two years vetting Dr. Salmon who will be performing Spinal Surgery using the new artificial disc for cervical disc replacement FOR SOME PATIENTS WHO ARE CANDIDATES. He of course will be performing lumbar procedures as well. The artificial disc (AD) is truly a miracle -since the cervical graft/fusion… the only option previous to the artificial disc prevented the patient from bending the neck, moving from side to side or looking up. Also, the deterioration of the bone due to the immobility caused by the fusion further deteriorates the adjoining discs. The artificial disc “ROTAIO”® Dr. Salmon uses is made by a German company with decades of research and history. Our Spinal Surgery package is l/3 the cost of prices in the U.S. We are told this cost is $90,000 US dollars. Nodding, shaking one’s head, looking up at the sky – a cervical disc prosthesis should allow one to enjoy the full range of life’s activities. This is one reason why the use of disc replacements that preserve movement has become increasingly established in recent years as an alternative to fusion (ACDF). But merely preserving movement in the decompressed segment is not enough: Postoperative neck pain and disproportionate stresses on the facet joints have been described repeatedly following cervical disc arthroplasty. To achieve a high quality of movement, disc prostheses must therefore replicate the natural pattern of movement of a disc as precisely as possible. Thus, ROTAIO offers not only rotation, flexion/extension and lateral flexion, but also the possibility of uncoupled translation. In this way, ROTAIO optimally reproduces the natural centre of rotation and thereby provides physiological, facet-guided, segmental movement.
