The Spine Center at SGMC. Innovation. Excellence. Dedication.

Congratulations to the Spine Center at SGMC for ranking in the top ten for spine surgery for the second consecutive year!

Our affiliated Neurosurgeons Hitham Khalil, MD and Edward Mark, MD and Orthopedists Eric Gee, MD, and James Goss, DO, offer more complex spine surgeries than what are usually performed in regional hospitals.  These include restorative and corrective procedures related  to various spine conditions including but not limited to, degenerative spine disease, herniated cervical, lumbar and thoracic disc disease, and spine fusions. 

Using a dedicated spinal surgery suite, our physicians are able to offer surgical treatments utilizing the latest in neuro/spine technology.  Our excellent outcomes are directly linked to quality of care, infection prevention and physician and staff training and expertise. SGMC provides seamless continuum of care for those patients needing rehabilitation services after surgery.
