We all know the saying: “Two heads are better than one.”
At The Specialist Spine Unit, we believe that when it comes to complex spinal conditions, ten heads are even better.
Every week, our multidisciplinary team (MDT) meets to discuss selected patient cases in detail. Surgeons, rheumatologists, radiologists, physiotherapists, osteopaths and spinal specialists come together to review your scans, clinical information and treatment options.
Sometimes the conclusion supports your consultant’s original recommendation, but often the shared expertise and discussion can help to refine the approach even further.
Of course, not every spinal condition requires an MDT review. But for more complex cases, we believe this collaborative approach leads to better decisions, better care and ultimately better outcomes for patients.
And these meetings come at no additional cost to you – they’re just one part of the care we provide to all our patients.
