Dr. Scott Katzman, a board certified orthopedic surgeon and Tenafly native who has lectured and educated other physicians and companies on his innovative techniques, specializes in minimally invasive spinal and laser surgical procedures.
A physician with New Jersey Spine and Orthopedic, he recently spoke with NJ Advance Media about the new techniques used in the practice’s treatment for neck and tailbone pain.
Artificial disc replacement (ADR), one of the most advanced and successful treatments for neck pain (cervicalgia) caused by herniated discs, is performed as an outpatient procedure and offers advantages to traditional neck fusion surgery.
Another outpatient procedure, coccygectomy, safely alleviates prolonged or permanent pain from fractures of the coccyx (tailbone).
