Services
Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery
Minimally invasive spine surgery corrects spinal conditions with smaller incisions, reduced tissue damage, and faster recovery. Our surgeons use advanced imaging and specialized instruments to treat herniated discs, spinal stenosis, and deformities. Patients experience less postoperative pain and shorter hospital stays compared to traditional open surgery, making this approach ideal for many spinal conditions.
Robotic Spine Surgery
Robotic spine surgery enhances precision through computer-guided technology, allowing for accurate implant placement and complex corrections. This approach reduces surgical risks, improves outcomes for spinal deformities, and enables personalized treatment plans. Patients benefit from minimized tissue disruption and accelerated recovery while maintaining high procedural accuracy.
Scoliosis Treatment
We provide comprehensive scoliosis management from pediatric cases to adult degenerative forms. Treatment options include bracing, physical therapy, and surgical correction using advanced instrumentation. Our team specializes in complex deformity corrections while prioritizing functional outcomes and quality-of-life improvements for patients.
Degenerative Disc Disease Management
Our approach combines conservative therapies like physical therapy with targeted interventions for degenerative disc disease. When necessary, we employ minimally invasive discectomy or fusion procedures to alleviate pain and restore mobility, focusing on long-term spinal health and symptom management.
Spinal Trauma Care
We specialize in emergency and reconstructive care for spinal trauma, including fractures and spinal cord injuries. Our multidisciplinary approach ensures rapid stabilization, nerve protection, and functional restoration using both surgical and non-surgical methods tailored to injury severity.

There is no one better on the planet than the Hunt brothers. Dr. Gabriel and Dr. Leonel Hunt saved my wifes life from a brain tumor and then 3 years later removed tumors successfully from her spinal cord. They are the most professional, genuine and authentic in the way they care. Care for their patients but also in the incredible care they give. Take this review for a preview of the successful journey into the tough maze that Hunt brothers will guide you through. You will come out saying that was Amazing. Like we did twice. We are grateful everyday.

I was looking for a surgeon to do a micro surgery in my back last year and, after a few interviews with other surgeons I decided to meet Dr. Hunt. All the process was flawless for me. His staff guide through the process e.g. appointments, etc. The surgery was a success as he and myself was aspecting. My surgery was done last year around 9/2020. I went to see him after my 30 day recovery and since then I am pain free person. He is the best on his field and I know that for a fact. Giorgio B.

Dr. Hunt,
Was the worst Doctor, I have ever experienced in my entire life. Did a proceedure on my back and did not
Connect the lead in my spine to the battery in my
Glute!!! If its not connected or calibrated for the patient what was the purpose of the surgery to begin with? Just to scar my body up which he did a good job at doing. I would never want to see this man again in my life except in a court of LAW! He should not be practicing in my opinion. All I got from him is his concern is about making
Money, I didnt see any concern for the patient.
Im done I could go on but why bother
