Back pain and spinal disorders are managed by an experienced team of non-surgical and surgical specialists. This team approach to these complex conditions has produced excellent results. Dr. Jeffrey Knox, a retired Major in the U.S. Army and former Chief of Neurosurgery and Orthopaedic Spine Surgeon at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Germany, started BronxCare’s Orthopaedics Non-Operative Spine Program. He was recently joined by Dr. Jithin John who adds a “return-to-sport” component to the spine program. Both these orthopaedic specialists are offering a wide range of non-surgical options for back pain patients.
When surgical care is needed, the department is proud to have two expert and experienced spine surgeons, Dr. Joshua Auerbach, Chief of Spine Surgery, and Dr. Alan Job. These orthopaedic surgeons, both separately and as a team, offer the widest range of surgical options available to patients. The operating room also uses the most modern state-of-the-art equipment, ensuring safety and superior results for patients.
