Orthopaedic Surgeon in Shreveport, Louisiana (LA)

In January 2007, my spine practice partnered with the legendary Bicknell Orthopaedic Group in Shreveport. My spine practice at Willis Knighton Pierremont and the Portico Center ranges from conservative nonoperative management to spinal injections and finally operative care using proven technology and the latest techniques.

We welcome both adult and pediatric patients and will tailor the treatment to your specific diagnosis and needs.

I have experience with degenerative, trauma, tumor, and deformity conditions of the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine. We can also discuss if your condition is appropriate for minimally invasive technology. I also have experience with Kyphoplasty, X-Stop, and Charite artificial disk replacement. I am the only surgeon in the Shreveport-Bossier area using Hydrocision and Pediguard technology to make spine surgery safer and better.

This website will provide you access to straightforward information on spinal anatomy, disease, and general treatment options. In clinic, I will personally discuss your specific diagnosis and individual treatment plan with you and your loved ones using anatomic models & your xrays/MRI, and all your questions will be answered.

If you need surgery, then I will explain it in detail as well. You will be treated like a family member because we will provide a honest and fair view of your prognosis. Additionally, we welcome and encourage you to obtain a second or third medical opinion regarding your nonoperative or operative care.

At this website, you will also learn about postoperative therapy and recovery. Feel free to pass on this valuable and free information to your family and friends.

I thank you for visiting my webpage and look forward to helping you get back to your active life, work, or sports.
