Fellowship-trained, board-certified (and re-certified) Orthopaedic Spine Surgeon Dr. Stewart G. Eidelson has spent 25 years in practice, commuting between offices in New York and Delray Beach. He has performed more than 5,000 spine surgeries utilizing the most advanced technologies and is a leader in minimally invasive procedures to remedy disc disorders (degenerative disc disease), herniated discs and treatment for spinal stenosis.
“My practice features a comprehensive, multifaceted approach to spinal conditions with a team that includes pain management, acupuncture, physical therapy and chiropractic. I have a particular interest in the elderly patients, although the whole world has spinal stenosis,” he laughs. “As the spine ages and the canal closes, the nerves get compressed. Luckily, I can treat 90 percent of this without surgery. Experience is key when seeking a spine surgeon.” he advises.
Eidelson has authored three books used worldwide as training manuals, featuring outcome studies that determine the most effective treatments for cervical and lumbar spine problems.
In 2000 he founded SpineUniverse.com—the largest website focused on spinal condition education in the world with more than 20 million views.
“There are no barriers between me and my patients. I personally see every patient and I give them my cell number. I offer concierge service without any of the fees,” he explains.
