At Saint Luke's, you'll have a team of specialists working together on your back pain, helping you get back to the life you love.
Back pain can be complicated, sometimes requiring you to see multiple specialists to find the most effective treatment.
The Saint Luke’s spine program brings those specialists together on one team solely focused on providing you with quicker access to the most effective operative and non-operative treatments for spine and neck pain.
Our team provides comprehensive care for back pain—from minor to debilitating—at two locations, Saint Luke's East Hospital in Lee's Summit and Saint Luke’s Hospital of Kansas City. They’ll help you navigate the process, so you can get pain relief faster.
The spine program is part of Saint Luke's Marion Bloch Neuroscience Institute.

The Saint Luke’s Difference
Saint Luke’s is the only place in the area where a multidisciplinary spine team meets on a weekly basis to review the cases of back and neck pain patients.
Comprehensive, compassionate care
We treat more than just your symptoms—we treat the whole person, getting you back to doing what you love.
From physical therapy to leading pain management techniques, our team will explore every option to help you find relief without surgery.
Advanced surgical options
For those who require surgery, our surgeons use the most advanced minimally invasive techniques to ensure faster recovery and better outcomes.
The goal is to help patients manage pain by means other than the long-term use of opioid medications. Our treatments may include physical therapy and exercise, non-narcotic medications, and interventions, such as injections or surgical management when necessary.
