About the Spine Program

The Spine Program provides a specialized, high level of expertise in spinal care. We are one of only a few programs in Canada dedicated to the treatment of spine disorders. We treat all spine conditions and all spine levels including cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine.

Common spinal diagnoses include:

• Spinal stenosis & neurogenic claudication
• Disc herniation & sciatica
• Osteoporosis
• Scoliosis
• Back pain

Urgent spinal conditions are treated by surgeons in the Division of Spine Surgery. Non-urgent conditions are treated by spine surgeons from the Division of Orthopaedic Surgery and the Division of Neurosurgery.

We are a part of the Holland Bone and Joint Program and a major contributor to the Tory Trauma Program, and Odette Cancer Program.
