At Precision Brain, Spine and Pain Centre, we have assembled a leading group of neurosurgeons and spinal surgeons, each with specific and complementary areas of expertise. We are not solo-specialists or specialists in a practice full of other doctors from the same specialty. Precision’s multidisciplinary team assembles a diverse experience of training, skills and experience, and draws these together in a cohesive and tailored fashion.
Specialised Treatment & World Class Care
Brain and spinal problems are, by their essence, frequently complicated and often difficult to diagnose and manage. In addition, the best overall treatment of these problems often involves many different components. For these reasons we believe that brain, spine and pain-related conditions are best assessed in a comprehensive and sophisticated way, and treated in a very individualised manner.
We strive to bring together the best science, research, and technology, and use them to formulate and deliver a treatment plan often composed of many different elements. We do this to maximise the chance of a successful outcome and to minimise uncertainty.
Specialists include neurosurgeons and spinal surgeons, who work together with pain specialists, exercise physiologists, psychologists and psychiatrists and physiotherapists. Specialists’ backgrounds may be different, but they share a strong passion and dedication for the wellbeing of their patients.
In the first instance we try to avoid spinal surgery wherever possible. But if a specialist neurosurgeons and spinal surgeons believe that surgery is the best option for you, then rest assured you will be in excellent hands.
Whilst Precision’s approach is sometimes complex, the philosophy is simple: to deliver the best results with the least risk.
