Commack, NY Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery

Smaller incisions. Faster recovery. Trusted spine care in Suffolk County.

Advanced MISS Techniques at NYSI Commack

If you’re living with chronic back or neck pain and conservative treatments haven’t worked, Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery (MISS) may be the next step toward lasting relief. At New York Spine Institute in Commack, our board-certified spine surgeons perform cutting-edge MISS procedures to reduce pain, speed up healing, and help you get back to life—with fewer disruptions and smaller incisions.

Conveniently located on Commack Road, our Suffolk County office brings hospital-level spine care to Long Island patients—serving communities from Smithtown and Huntington to Brentwood and East Northport.

What Is Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery?

MISS uses advanced imaging and specialized instruments to treat spinal problems through small incisions—minimizing muscle disruption, reducing blood loss, and shortening hospital stays. These techniques are as effective as traditional open surgery but with significantly less trauma to the body.

Benefits for Long Island Patients:

Less pain after surgery
Smaller scars and quicker recovery
Reduced risk of infection
Outpatient or short hospital stay
Faster return to work, driving, and daily life

In a community that values mobility and independence, MISS offers a modern solution for long-term spine relief—without the extended downtime.

Who’s a Candidate for Minimally Invasive Surgery?

MISS is ideal for patients whose symptoms haven’t improved with non-surgical treatments like physical therapy, injections, or medications. It’s commonly used to treat:

Herniated or bulging discs
Spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal)
Degenerative disc disease
Spondylolisthesis or vertebral slippage
Compression fractures due to trauma or osteoporosis
Benign spinal tumors or cysts
Scoliosis or spinal curvature disorders

At NYSI Commack, we use imaging (MRI, CT, X-ray) and a detailed clinical exam to confirm your diagnosis and determine if MISS is right for you.
