Dr. Anders Cohen Leads The Way Towards Improved Spinal Surgery Techniques

A specialist in cutting-edge spinal surgery techniques, Dr. Anders Cohen is able to perform spinal surgery that is considered to be a lot safer than traditional procedures. In the past, spinal surgery was extremely invasive and presented a lot of problems for both the patient and the surgeon. Requiring large incisions in the abdominal and/or back areas, traditional spinal surgery is long, costly, delicate and potentially problematic.

However, what used to be a very complex process has now become simpler and safer, thanks to the extraordinary skill of Dr. Cohen. He was the first to perform the revolutionary AxiaLIF (Trans1) and XLIF procedures in New York, paving the way toward a better alternative from traditional spinal surgeries. The newer procedures are far less invasive and painful, and the recovery time is reduced significantly. Most patients who are operated on using the new procedures are usually able to leave the hospital 24 hours after the surgery, and become fit enough to return to their daily activities within two to three weeks after their release.

Thanks to the courage and dedication of Dr. Anders Cohen, New Yorkers can now enjoy better methods of spinal surgery.
