Hard to believe we just concluded the 3rd Annual Endoscopic Spine Surgery Symposium at Seattle Science Foundation. Felt like the first one was just last year. Thanks to Christoph Hofstetter, Saqib Hasan and Mark Mahan for organizing such an incredible meeting of minds. Great to connect with and learn from both old Albert Telfeian Peter B. Derman, MD, MBA John Ogunlade, DO FCNS Sanjay Konakondla Javier Quillo-Olvera M.D. Gregory Basil, MD, FAANS, FCNS Choll Kim, MD PhD Don Park Mazda Farshad Raymond Gardocki Patrick Kim Jian Shen Nathaniel Brooks khan and new colleagues Dr. med. Christian Morgenstern, PhD Dipl.-Ing. and awesome to see returning attendees. I had the privilege of demonstrating the Extraforaminal approach, one of the best indications for endoscopic lumbar discectomy. I also delivered a lecture on the interlaminar lumbar endoscopic approach, which will go live on Seattle Science Foundation TV in the coming months. The intimate format with face to face engagement was invaluable to the attendees - “This 5 minutes of discussion was worth the entire trip”
Thanks to all the SSF staff for putting on a flawless event Hanna Kennedy
