SPECIALTY AND FOCUS
What I bring to my profession is the ability to perform surgery through the entire range of spinal disorders—cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine—utilizing surgical techniques for the anterior and posterior approach as well as combined approaches. I have the skills and techniques to treat all types of spinal disorders, including degenerative, traumatic and congenital.
PHILOSOPHY OF CARE
Dr. Lombardi and I have over 60 years of combined experience in spinal surgery, employing the ongoing medical advances available, including minimally invasive techniques, to speed recovery and reduce operative times and postoperative pain.
We listen to patients when they express their fears with respect to surgery, pain or disability. Our entire staff is very friendly, open and knowledgeable in supporting our patients through this process.
I feel it is also important that we serve as patients’ advocates in a system that may be frequently daunting for them, especially when dealing with insurance or legal issues connected to their care.
GRATIFYING PATIENT EXPERIENCE
I was going through my papers recently and came across a card from a patient who had suffered from disabling back pain. He was unable to return to work and faced the possibility of lifelong pain.
He wrote a nice note expressing his gratitude and said he felt my surgery had changed his life. Obviously, I am very grateful for this type of experience. It is the whole reason why people go into medicine in the first place: to have the unique ability to positively impact peoples’ lives.
Dr. James Patti is an outstanding orthopedic doctor. He takes the time to listen, explain everything clearly, and genuinely cares about his patients. His expertise and compassion made me feel completely confident in my treatment and recovery. The staff is also friendly and professional, making every visit a positive experience. I highly recommend Dr. Patti to anyone in need of excellent orthopedic care!
Explains everything very clearly and allows patient to participate in treatment decisions. Excellent experience.
