SpineCare

By Dr. Carley Sauter

The Covid-19 pandemic certainly presented our team with many challenges but we were able to quickly adapt. We rapidly adopted virtual visits as a primary means of care delivery during the early stages of COVID. Dr. Andy Nelson was instrumental in developing workflows, templates and training for our providers to ensure we were able to continue to provide seamless care to our patients during the pandemic. While we are now transitioning back to primarily in person visits, we have continued to offer the virtual option to patients, which has been very well received and frequently utilized.

Changes continue at SpineCare as we partner with Pain Management, Orthopedic Surgery and Neurosurgery under the umbrella of the Comprehensive Pain and SpineCare Center to provide multifaceted care to our patients.
