  • As is the case with all of his spinal stenosis patients, Dr. Medlock initially took a conservative approach to Korumpas’s treatment, referring him to Kelly Pajela, M.D., one of three physiatrists who work in his Peabody practice. Surgery is always the last step in the treatment process, when we can no longer keep a patient comfortable by other means,” says Dr. Pajela. “My role with Dennis was to provide nonsurgical treatment options such as medication, physical therapy and teaching him how to modify his physical activities.” More than 80 percent of all patients who have this type of surgery will experience a significant improvement in their function and a markedly reduced level of pain and discomfort.

  • Minimally Invasive, Maximally Beneficial | Salem Hospital | Mass General Brigham

Patients took notice of this innovative approach and opted for more than 450 procedures at Salem Hospital last year. For a patient like Roslyn Grosser, the availability of the surgical robot makes a difference.
