About The Spine and Orthopedic Center

The Spine and Orthopedic Center is a well-established and busy private orthopedic, spine, neurology, and pain management practice. We have 4 offices throughout Southern California, including in Santa Barbara, Oxnard, Santa Maria, and Bakersfield. The Spine and Orthopedic Center is committed to providing our patients with the highest quality care relating to back and neck conditions. Additionally, we also specialize in conservative, non-surgical treatment of orthopedic conditions, including shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand, hip, knee, ankle, and foot conditions, and in treatment of neurological conditions. We believe that patients benefit from a conservative (non-surgical), multi-disciplinary approach to treatment. Treatment options include pain management, spinal injections, and, if necessary, minimally invasive surgeries such as outpatient microdiscectomy, spinal fusion, and arthroscopic surgery.
