Spine Surgery Pre-Op Classes

We encourage all spine surgery patients to attend a Spine Surgery Pre-operative Education Class. Now offered  In-Person and virtually, the interactive class teaches participants what to expect before, during and after spine surgery for the neck (cervical) and back (thoracic/lumbar). With this knowledge, you are better able to participate in your care plan. The class is lead by a Spine Pre-Op Education Specialist.

The preoperative class will help participants:

• Prepare for surgery.
• Know what to expect during the hospital stay.
• Understand pain management options after surgery.
• Rehab therapy.
• Set post-surgery goals. 
• Understand their discharge plan.
