Cervical osteotomies are advanced surgical procedures performed to correct severe deformities of the neck portion of the spine, known as the cervical spine. They involve carefully cutting and reshaping bone to restore proper alignment, improve balance, and relieve pressure on the spinal cord or nerves. These procedures are often used in complex cases of cervical kyphosis or rigid deformities that cannot be corrected with less invasive techniques. By realigning the spine, cervical osteotomies can help improve posture, reduce pain, and enhance neurological function. Because of their complexity, they require highly specialized surgical expertise and meticulous planning to ensure safety and optimal outcomes. Contact us today to learn more!

For years, even the simplest activities like walking or shopping were impossible due to severe pain and progressive Scoliosis. At 74, after two unsuccessful surgeries, hope felt out of reach—until meeting Han Jo Kim, MD changed everything. With confidence and compassion, he outlined a plan to restore her posture and relieve her pain. Following complex spinal reconstruction, she stood upright the very next day and was soon taking longer walks than she had in years. Each milestone felt like a return to normal life, something she feared was gone forever. Today, she is back to walking, working, and living fully—grateful for a second chance at life.

The goals of scoliosis surgery go far beyond straightening the spine—they focus on restoring balance, stability, and overall function. By correcting the abnormal curvature of scoliosis, surgery aims to improve posture, reduce pain, and prevent further progression. A key objective is achieving proper alignment in all three planes, helping the body move more naturally and efficiently. Surgeons also work to protect neurological function while creating a durable correction that lasts over time. Ultimately, the goal is to enhance the quality of life, allowing patients to return to daily activities with greater confidence and comfort. For more information, schedule an appointment today!

At 15, Billy discovered he had scoliosis after his mother noticed a slight protrusion in his right shoulder blade, with a curvature of 20–30 degrees. Despite trying non-surgical treatments, his condition worsened, and limited access to surgical care while living abroad delayed further intervention. After moving to New York for college, he sought treatment and met Dr. Kim, who gave him confidence despite his curve progressing to over 100 degrees and complications from Marfan Syndrome. Following successful spinal fusion surgery and recovery, Billy is deeply grateful and now enjoys life without the burden of severe scoliosis.
