Living with chronic back pain can feel like a full-time job, draining your energy and keeping you from the activities you love most. In this video, Mike Parish shares his journey of struggling with constant pain and how he finally found lasting relief.

If you suffer from persistent low back and leg pain that hasn’t responded to conservative therapies or medications, you might be an ideal candidate for a Spinal Cord Stimulator.

As Dr. Chris Woolley, a pain specialist at Sierra Neurosurgery Group, explains, this innovative, minimally invasive therapy can be a game-changer for those who haven’t found relief elsewhere.
For Mike, turning on his device meant the pain virtually disappeared. Now he’s back to hitting the golf course and enjoying walks with his dog.

Don’t let chronic pain diminish your life. Reach out to us today to see if spinal cord stimulation is the right next step for your pain management journey.

Tired of back pain calling the shots? 🛑 Chronic low back pain can feel like a life sentence. But it doesn’t have to be that way.

Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) uses mild electrical pulses to mask pain signals before they reach your brain. Think of it like noise-canceling headphones for your back. 🎧✨

Why patients love SCS:
✅ Non-Opioid: Reduce or eliminate reliance on pain meds.
✅ The “Test Drive”: You can try a temporary version for a week to see if it works for you.
✅ Adjustable: You control your comfort levels via a remote or app.
Don’t let “failed back surgery” or chronic back pain keep you on the sidelines. It’s time to get back to your life!

When it comes to your brain and spine, trust is everything. 🧠💙

Facing neurosurgery can feel scary, which is why having complete confidence in your surgeon is vital to your peace of mind and recovery.

Exceptional care goes far beyond the operating room, it’s about taking the time to explain complex procedures so that you feel completely comfortable and empowered about your health.

We are thankful for patients like William who trust us with their care:
"Dr. Moore is without a doubt the most knowledgeable Doctor in his field and explained everything to me in an easy way for me to understand. I'm very thankful he's in my corner! Thank You Doctor Moore." — William J.

We are grateful to have Dr. Moore's clear communication and expertise on our team.

✅ No more arm pain
✅ Strength has returned
✅ Restored neck mobility
✅ Feeling relaxed and "pleased" immediately post-op!

Every successful surgery begins with trust and communication. Donna valued Dr. Demers’ upfront honesty, making sure she felt confident and informed every step of the way.
