The Spine Institute Center for Spinal Restoration

Trusted Leaders in Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery & Non-Surgical Spinal Procedures

Guided by the visionary leadership of Medical Director Dr. Hyun Bae, The Spine Institute’s trusted professional physicians are redefining the field of spinal surgery and cutting-edge treatment for chronic neck and back pain. From stem cell research to minimally invasive surgery and fusion alternatives, our physicians have been instrumental in all of the innovations made in the last 15 years related to spine surgery. Los Angeles patients can rest assured that, with a physician from The Spine Institute on their side, chronic pain won’t prevent them from doing the things they love, whether that be playing sports, working on the computer, exercising, or engaging in another activity. Maintaining a healthy spine is vital to a person’s overall wellbeing. If you’re experiencing chronic pain in your neck or back, it’s important to determine the cause, as it could be something serious enough to require a surgical procedure. Some of the fusion and non-fusion procedures we perform include:

  • Anterior lumbar interbody fusion
  • Extreme lumbar interbody fusion
  • Decompression procedures such as laminectomy, kyphoplasty, and vertebroplasty
  • Cervical & lumbar artificial disc replacement
  • Dynamic stabilization
  • Spinal cord stimulation

As industry leaders in the field of spine surgery, The Spine Institute is often featured in the news for pioneering revolutionary surgical and minimally invasive spinal procedures.
