NewSouth NeuroSpine is recognized as Mississippi’s Spine Center by assembling a group of experienced, respected and well-trained physicians. We want to introduce them, and be assured that when you choose NS2 you will be receiving quality care in a first class facility.
Today, we would like you to meet our surgeons. Neurosurgery and orthopaedic spine surgery is a complex specialty that requires patience, knowledge, and skill. Our surgeons have those traits and more, because they are dedicated to treating the whole patient and looking for the best long-term results. We accomplish this by with a team approach. No matter which of our surgeons is your personal doctor, you receive the benefit of the whole team. We don’t have to call all over the country to find someone to consult on a difficult case; we walk down the hall.
Our surgeons are also dedicated to eliminating unnecessary surgeries by looking to other options for each individual case, only using surgery when it's the best option.
