And actually, it's less dangerous now than it's ever been.

And once again, that comes back to technology.

Our understanding of the anatomy is better.

The options we have when it comes to treatment are more precise.

So surgery has never been safer and the outcomes have never been better.

So this is a great time to be a spine surgeon and it's a great time if you're having back pain and if you're in the hands of the right person to have your issues resolved.

So things that are minimally invasive and things that are robotic.

So what I've enjoyed the most, most recently, are new endoscopic techniques.

So when endoscopic techniques were first introduced, we were limited in terms of the approach to the spine, in terms of how we could get to the pathology.

But that technology has evolved to a point where we can use a more traditional approach to get into the spine while still using endoscopic techniques to get to the pathology, to have excellent visualization of the pathology, and to resolve symptoms very quickly.

And the less damage you do anatomically to solve pathology, the quicker the recovery is.

So that's one arm, the endoscopic arm.

The other arm is the robotics.

So with robotics, we can plan our procedures better, use advanced imaging prior to surgery, marry that to intraoperative imaging, and our

placement of implants has never been better.

So we're able to get our screws in better when it comes to fusion cases, our cages.

We can see the antibody spaces also with robotics.

AI is also playing a role when it comes to spine surgery.

So it's a great time.

It's a great time to be in the field.
