About First visit

Robotic navigation

Robotic-assisted surgery

Dr. Barner is trained in robotic-assisted spine surgery. When an operation is the plan, ExcelsiusGPS™ robotic navigation can help guide instruments along a path planned from your imaging. Whether it fits your case, and where the surgery would take place, is discussed at your visit.

The plan

Most patients improve without an operation.

  • Conservative, non-surgical treatment first whenever it is appropriate — therapy, injections, and time.
  • The goal is the most effective, least invasive treatment that still treats the problem.
  • Some disc problems can be treated with cervical or lumbar disc replacement instead of fusing the level. Fusion is still the clearer plan for some people.
  • When surgery is needed, minimally invasive and robotic-assisted options are discussed at the visit — not from a website.

How care is matched

Three paths. One aim.

Matched to the problem in front of you, not a one-size plan.

  1. 01

    Conservative care first

    Therapy, injections, and time whenever those still treat the problem. Most patients improve without an operation. Surgery is discussed only when it is the clearer way forward.

  2. 02

    Motion preservation

    Some disc problems can be treated by removing the damaged disc and placing a moving implant instead of fusing the level — cervical or lumbar disc replacement. Fusion is still the clearer plan for some people. That choice is made after imaging and a visit, not from a website.
