Therefore, our goal for both you and your patient is to completely share why surgery is needed.  Also, we will explain how the surgery will happen, and what the expected results will look like.

Over the past five years, Scoliosis treatment technology has changed very rapidly.  And now, there are many ways to treat patients,” says Dr. Hostin. “I lecture to groups around the country – pediatricians, primary care doctors, internists to try to keep them updated on the latest advances in scoliosis treatment.  Meanwhile, the reality is that in the 21st century, we can very effectively treat scoliosis in adults.”
