Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery

Dr. Anders Cohen Performs Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery

New York’s surgical miracle worker Dr. Anders Cohen is a premiere neurological surgeon who also specializes in spinal surgery. He is known for his groundbreaking work and lectures on cutting-edge minimally invasive spinal surgical techniques as well as motion preservation and spinal fusion techniques.

Anders Cohen was the first doctor in New York to perform the revolutionary AxiaLIF (Trans1) and XLIF procedures. Because of his work, thousands of patients present and future will no longer have to experience the extra pain and complications that that used to come unavoidably with open surgeries on the spine and abdomen, which were heavily associated with longer recovery time, unsightly scars and even fatal infections.

With newer procedures performed by Dr. Anders Cohen, patients of procedures like the one used to treat degenerative disc disease can be released as early as 24 hours after surgery and resume to their normal daily routines within two or three weeks, allowing them to save money on hospital bills and fulfill their other responsibilities sooner than usual.
