Surgical Services
Stanford's Orthopaedic Spine Center team, headed by Dr. Ivan Cheng, uses innovative approaches with the goal of offering a precise diagnosis to patients.
Using studies not done elsewhere, such as the functional anesthetic discogram used to pinpoint the source of pain, Stanford physicians focus on the proper initial execution of surgery and long-term post operative follow up to ensure the best outcomes possible.
