Surgical Spine, Neck & Back Procedures

  • Spinal Cord Stimulation For patients with chronic neuropathic pain, spinal cord stimulation can provide remarkable relief by interrupting pain signals before they reach the brain. This minimally invasive procedure has helped thousands of patients reduce their dependence on pain medications.
  • Intrathecal Pain Pumps When oral medications aren't effective or cause intolerable side effects, intrathecal pain pumps deliver targeted medication directly to the spinal fluid. This allows for maximum pain relief with minimal systemic side effects.
  • Radiofrequency Ablation This outpatient procedure uses radiofrequency energy to interrupt nerve signals that carry pain messages to the brain. Many patients experience months of relief from chronic back, neck, or joint pain after this minimally invasive treatment.
  • Vertebroplasty/Kyphoplasty For patients with painful vertebral compression fractures, these procedures stabilize the spine and provide immediate pain relief. Most patients notice significant improvement within 24-48 hours of the procedure.
Star
Over 85% of patients who receive advanced pain management procedures experience a 50% or greater reduction in pain scores within three months.

What Patients Say

SP
My father had spine surgery with Dr. Munk and was happy with the results. Dr Munk has always been very helpful, courteous and compassionate towards both my father and myself. These reviews must be a small handful out of 1000's. I'm in need of shoulder surgery myself now and if Dr. Munk could do, I wouldn't hesitate for a moment. He's a wonderful doctor. My father thinks he's a rock star!

Mendelson Kornblum has the best doctors and staff. They have same day appointments for serious injuries. I definitely recommend them to friends and family. Dr. Mulawa is the best! Spends quality time with me reviewing different treatments. Never long wait times and super friendly staff. Dr. Munk is the best orthopedic surgeon around. He makes you feel comfortable and spends time answering questions regarding any surgical procedures.

I've been to Dr. Kornblum for lower back surgery and Dr. Munk for SI Joint surgeries and I've always been treated very well. Both were very professional and up front about everything that I was dealing with, and what to expect. No false hope. But most of all, they were both very easy to talk to about any concerns that I had. I'm very grateful that they were able to help me the way they did. I've never had any issues with Mendelson/Kornblum in Livonia. Whether it's billing, appointments or checking in, or anything else, everyone's been friendly and helpful.
