Nearly 6 decades of experience and tradition in spine surgery...
If you're reading this page, you most likely haven't yet found the solution you need for your spine condition. We understand that spine surgery represents a life decision and should not be taken lightly. Most of our patients have searched extensively for a diagnosis or for a less aggressive treatment from a trusted spine surgeon.
You have likely already exhausted physical therapy, rehabilitation, and alternative treatments. Many of our patients arrive at CICOVE in Mexico City seeking a second opinion on spine surgery before committing to a procedure — and for us, surgery is always the last resort, never the first. We prioritize the functionality and health of our patients above any procedure.
Approximately 15% of the patients we operate on have had a previous spine surgery performed by another specialist. Revision spine surgery — also known as reintervention — is one of the most complex terrains of the discipline: the anatomy has been modified, prior implants and scar tissue are present, and every decision demands accumulated experience. CICOVE is among the few spine centers in Mexico City with deep experience in revision spine surgery.
When the patient requires surgery, we perform minimally invasive procedures and, even more importantly, those that preserve the mobility of your spine.
If you are looking for a definitive solution for your spine condition — regardless of what treatments you've had before — there is a way to help you and improve your quality of life. Schedule an appointment and together we'll find the treatment that best fits you.
