PREMIER NEUROSURGERY IN OC
Whether your back pain started yesterday or has lasted for years, you deserve answers. From conservative care to minimally invasive surgery, we will work to find what's causing your pain and fix it at the source.
CONDITIONS AND SYMPTOMS
Every treatment plan begins the same way: with a real conversation about your symptoms, your concerns, and your goals. You'll always understand your diagnosis and every option available, both surgical and non-surgical. That's what a personal touch means to us.
Cervical Disc Disease
Persistent neck pain, stiffness, or disc problems — including herniated cervical discs that cause pain radiating into your shoulders and arms.
Pinched Nerve
Numbness, tingling, or weakness in your arms and hands caused by nerve compression in the cervical spine.
Thoracic Spine Conditions
Pain, deformity, or compression fractures in the thoracic spine — often from injury, osteoporosis, or degenerative changes.
Lumbar Disc Herniation
The most common source of back pain — from herniated and bulging discs to degenerative disc disease in the lumbar spine.
Sciatica & Leg Pain
Sharp, radiating pain from your lower back down your leg, caused by compression of the sciatic nerve.
Spinal Stenosis
Narrowing of the spinal canal that causes pain, heaviness, or numbness in your legs — especially when walking or standing.
Spinal Instability
Vertebrae that have slipped out of place, causing pain, nerve symptoms, and instability that may worsen over time.
Failed Back Surgery
Still in pain after a previous spine surgery? Dr. Chan evaluates complex and revision cases to find what was missed.
Have a more complex condition?

Choosing a spine surgeon is one of the most important health decisions you'll make. Patients choose Dr. Chan for a simple reason: surgery is always the last resort, never the first suggestion.

Minimally Invasive Procedures
Smaller incisions, less pain, and faster recovery through advanced surgical techniques.

Spine & Back Treatments
Advanced treatment for brain tumors, nerve disorders, and complex neurological conditions.
THE PROCESS
Recovery isn't something that happens to you, it's a path we walk together. Before your procedure, you'll know exactly what to expect: how long surgery takes, what recovery looks like, and when you can return to work, driving, and the activities you love.
COVERAGE
Quality spine care shouldn't come with billing surprises. We accept most major insurance plans, and our team will verify your coverage and explain your benefits before your first appointment.
SCHEDULE
You've lived with the pain long enough. Whether you're seeking a diagnosis, exploring treatment options, or looking for a second opinion, your first step is a simple conversation.
