A. Jay Khanna, M.D. - Specializing Spine Care

Message to My Patients:

Treatment Philosophy:

From your initial diagnosis through all phases of your treatment, I am committed to providing you with the most advanced and comprehensive care available for your spinal condition, injury or disease. I partner with neurosurgeons, radiologists, pathologists, internal medicine physicians, physical therapists, nurse clinicians and others to ensure that you are provided with a comprehensive and multidisciplinary approach to your spinal condition.

Not all spinal conditions, injuries and diseases require spinal surgery. If after a thorough evaluation we determine that you are a candidate for spinal surgery, you will benefit from advanced techniques ranging from minimally invasive spine surgery to complex spinal reconstructions in an effort to achieve excellent clinical and functional outcomes.
