UOC Spine Institute includes a team of specialized physicians and support staff who are dedicated to evaluating and treating all aspects of musculoskeletal disorders, from soft tissue injuries to acute neck and back pain, and from disc injuries/disorders to sciatica and referred pain into the extremities, hips, and shoulders. In conjunction with our established orthopedics center, UOC Spine Intitute provides comprehensive evaluation and treatment. We have a “one team, one goal” approach.

Our specialized spine team includes fellowship trained orthopedic spine surgeons Dr. Gregory Bailey and Dr. Joel Torretti; Dr. Todd Cousins and Dr. Keith Zora, fellowship trained and board certified pain management physicians; Dr. Paul Lamb, a chiropractic treatment and adjunctive therapies specialist; and Dr. Richard Allatt, a board certified physiatrist who provides medical management of spine and related disorders.
