Scoliosis and Deformity Correction
Scoliosis, or curvature of the spine, can affect patients both young and old. As scoliosis progresses, most patients begin to suffer progressive back, rib, and pelvic pain as well as difficulty standing and walking.
Dr. Hatef offers correction of scoliosis and other spinal deformities for teenagers and adults. He has a strong belief in bracing for children who have yet to finish growing. Through dedicated use of a brace, many patients can prevent the need for surgery. For those who do require surgery, he has advanced training in complex spine problems. In his fellowship training, he learned both neurosurgical and orthopedic spinal techniques for correcting all manner of deformities.
