The UF Health Comprehensive Spine Center in Gainesville provides personalized solutions for both common and complex spinal injuries, neck injuries and back pain. The multidisciplinary team approach gives patients individual access to the board-certified specialist that they need to see.
We have specialists who treat spine injuries across multiple specialties, including:
We offer advanced medical, interventional, minimally invasive and surgical treatment options for various spine-related conditions. Our collaborative spine team works together to develop a treatment plan designed towards the specific condition of each patient.
Our neurosurgeons and orthopaedic surgeons perform thousands of successful spinal surgeries every year, including minimally invasive spine surgery. Our medical and interventional spine experts including pain management physicians and physical medicine and rehabilitation doctors make sure to treat pain at the source and collaborate with our patients and their entire spine care team to determine the best treatment strategies. Through this combined care approach, we can help patients get back to living the life they want to live.
UF Health research scientists make medicine better every day. They discover new ways to help
people by running clinical trials. When you join a clinical trial, you can get advanced
medical care. Sometimes years before it's available everywhere. You can also help make
medicine better for everyone else.
