Patient-Centered Clinical Approach
Many patients arrive worried that neck pain, radiating sciatica, or knee arthritis automatically means major surgery. Dr. Shetty’s clinical approach prioritizes an accurate physical examination correlated with imaging (X-rays or MRI) before recommending a personalized roadmap:
- Non-surgical care first: Structured physiotherapy, targeted anti-inflammatory treatment, posture correction, and lifestyle modifications where appropriate.
- Minimally invasive options: When spinal nerve compression does not respond to conservative measures, endoscopic spine decompression aims to minimize tissue disruption.
- Transparent family discussions: Clear explanations of expected recovery timelines, surgical risks, and rehabilitation commitments.
