Total disc replacement (TDR) allows board-certified orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Stieber, to offer his patients a highly effective alternative to conventional spinal fusion. Delivering some of the top spine surgery in NYC, his procedure involves removing a damaged disc and replacing it with a new artificial disc, relieving back pain while preserving critical motion in the spine.
Robotic spine surgery is revolutionizing back surgery and optimizing patient outcomes, and Dr. Stieber is one of a handful of spinal surgeons in the northeast with the technology to perform these advanced procedures. His practice has adopted the ExcelsiusGPS system which delivers a host of benefits to our NYC and NJ patients, including smaller incisions, less exposure to radiation, fewer complications, faster surgery time and more.
A microdiscectomy is a minimally invasive spine procedure that removes herniated disc fragments and decompresses nerves causing persistent pain. Using advanced microsurgical instruments and real-time imaging, Dr. Stieber ensures precise targeting of disc pathology while preserving healthy tissue. This technique often results in faster recovery and pain relief with excellent results.
Microdecompression is a refined, minimally invasive procedure designed to relieve nerve compression caused by disc herniation or spinal stenosis. Utilizing specialized instruments and high-definition visualization, Dr. Stieber gently removes offending tissue without extensive muscle cutting. This method minimizes tissue damage, speeds recovery, and provides significant, lasting pain relief.
"My goal is to do the least surgery necessary to give you a lasting, successful outcome. If I can't picture you coming back happy, I won’t do the surgery."
