UT Health San Antonio opens spine center
The Spine Center at UT Health San Antonio is now open.
The new comprehensive, multidisciplinary center offers complete spine care for adults and children from a team of neurosurgeons, orthopedic surgeons, and specialists in conservative treatments for all types of spine conditions.
It is located at the Medical Arts and Research Center, suite 4A, and is home to the region’s only EOSedge, a state-of-the-art X-ray machine that uses lower doses of radiation and provides full body images in under 20 seconds.
“Our physicians can handle anything from a recent injury on the pickleball court to the treatment of complex disorders with minimally invasive techniques. Because we have specialists that treat the full range of spinal issues—from kids to grandmas--treatment plans will be as unique as the individual we are caring for. We want to help people enjoy better lives without invasive surgery if we can, but we also have the right surgeon when conservative care is not working,” said Christopher Chaput, MD, director of The Spine Center and chief of orthopedic spine surgery at UT Health San Antonio.
