WHY DISC REPLACEMENT?

Technological advancements in spine have provided a motion-preserving alternative to traditional fusion. Disc replacement is a type of surgery that removes a damaged spinal disc and replaces it with an artificial disc, keeping the natural anatomical motion of your spine intact.

​

As a leader in this space, Dr. Kimball is committed to providing the highest quality of care and getting you back to doing the things you love. Click below for more information on the patient experience with Dr. Kimball.
