It is never enough to stress the importance of the spine, the center of the human skeleton. There are a large number of spinal diseases, and the pain caused by them is often extreme.

Without proper treatment, spinal diseases can cause serious side effects, such as tetraplegia. Patients receiving unverified treatments in institutes other than reputable hospitals may experience severe aftereffects. In some cases, patients are deceived by false and exaggerated advertisements, and thus spend a huge amount of money for unsatisfactory treatments. The KNUH Spine Center is equipped with extensive knowledge and experience in high-level spinal surgeries and is making sure to minimize incision and bleeding by using microscopic surgical methods. Therefore, the KNUH Spine Center promises to provide the best treatments with safe and verified surgical methods that are most suitable to individual patients’ conditions.
