The current standards of practice in spine-related topics are aimed at fostering interactive dialogue and applying advanced educational knowledge in the management of various spinal conditions. These conditions include disc disease, radiculopathy/myelopathy, spondylolisthesis, spine trauma, sacroiliac joint pain, post-laminectomy syndrome, spinal tumors, and deformity/scoliosis. Through case reviews and studies, the goal is to guide the treatment of patients with spinal conditions, with a specific focus on advancing knowledge and patient care within California.

1. Improve clinical knowledge of spinal pathology.
2. Identify various spinal disease and variations in treatment of spinal diseases.
3. Improve collaborative effort with other spine surgeons and related healthcare providers.
4. Engage in discussion about the various spinal diseases so that we can identify where the variations are and why different surgeons choose different treatments for the same spine pathology.
