Finding a surgeon
There is both Posterior and Anterior Spinal Fusion
surgery; therefore, I recommend that you find a
surgeon who does both, so he knows which one is right
for you. Spine surgery is usually necessary after your
spine curves over 50 degrees. Finding the right surgeon
is very important. I suggest calling as many doctors or
friends you know who could recommend you to the
best Orthopedic Surgeon who specializes in Scoliosis. I
traveled across the country to see the best. You need to
make sure you do lots of research, ask a lot of
questions, and see several surgeons because you want
an expert working on your spine.
