Surgical Spine Associates: Eugene Bonaroti, MD, FACS

At Surgical Spine Associates, we provide advanced, minimally invasive solutions for spine pain treatment. Our board-certified neurosurgeons combine decades of experience with the latest technology to deliver care that is both safe and effective. As an independent practice, we are not tied to any hospital system, meaning every recommendation is made with your best interest in mind. From conservative options like epidural steroid injections and physical therapy referrals to advanced procedures like SI-BONE® fusion, Barricaid®, and Intracept®, we create treatment plans tailored to each patient’s needs. Our mission is simple: to relieve pain, restore mobility, and help patients move forward with confidence.
