Dr. Lauren Matteini specializes in the care and treatment of the whole spine - cervical, thoracic, and lumbar areas. Fellowship trained and board certified as a spine surgeon, Dr. Matteini works closely with fellow care providers (like physical therapists) to empower and educate her patients to meet their long-term health goals.
Working with both pediatric and adult patients, she utilizes both nonsurgical treatments and highly advanced surgical procedures to improve quality of life. Dr. Matteini particularly specializes in deformity correction, revision spine surgery, degenerative disc disease, scoliosis, disc herniation, nerve impingement, and stenosis. Minimally-invasive fusion techniques are offered for quicker return to function and less post-operative pain, particularly anterior and lateral approaches to the lumbar spine. Dr. Matteini is also an expert in the field of motion-preservation in the neck, utilizing cervical disc arthroplasty or replacement for optimal results with reduced recovery time.
Throughout her professional career, Dr. Matteini has worked tirelessly for the advancement of spinal orthopedic treatments, with her findings published in various medical journals. When not in an exam room or surgical suite, you can often find Dr. Matteini mentoring other women starting out in medicine, regardless of specialty. Dr. Matteini stays active bicycling, spinning, and doing yoga. She’s never met a jigsaw puzzle she couldn’t complete and she also values spending time with family, friends, her dog Valentina, and her cat Rufus.

She is the best. Answers all questions and is great surgeon.
I recently had a double cervical disc replacement performed by Dr. Matteini, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the exceptional care I received. From our first consultation, her confidence and expertise put me at ease, and her delightful bedside manner made a potentially stressful experience feel manageable. She took the time to explain everything thoroughly, answered all my questions, and truly cared about my comfort and recovery. I highly recommend Dr. Matteini to anyone in need of spine-related care—she’s not only a highly skilled surgeon but also a compassionate provider who truly makes a difference.
Very clear and helpful. Took time to answer questions.
Dr. Matteini and staff were very professional and caring. Highly recommend.
First visit, great visit.
