Neurosurgeon Featured in Article about Spine Surgery

On May 13, Becker’s Spine Review published an article titled “The biggest opportunities in spine from 9 surgeons.” In the article, nine spine surgeons discuss the most significant opportunities in the field today, including innovations in biologic treatments, physician advocacy and migrating cases to the outpatient setting. Neurosurgeon Brian R. Gantwerker, MD, FAANS, stated, “I think more surgeons need to be involved in advocacy. Instead of complaining about how things are, or “going with the flow,” let your congresspeople and senators know how things are going. So many folks in advocacy have no idea why so many doctors are not more involved.”
