“A physician is obligated to consider more than a diseased organ, more even than the whole man, he must view the man in his world.”
These words were spoken by the founding father of neurosurgery, Harvey Cushing, and have formed the foundation from which Dr. Lanman’s entire treatment philosophy has stemmed. The trademarked 4D Health™ approach means taking a holistic look at the entire picture, not just the damaged or deteriorated spine. We examine all contributing factors, from age and lifestyle, nutrition levels, exercise program, travel and work schedules, and more!
Dr. Lanman has further evolved Cushing’s philosophy, taking the view of his patients not just in their current world, but also into the future. When planning surgeries, Drs. Lanman and Cuéllar work with a future view, contemplating where you want to be within ten or twenty years, and planning surgeries around those goals. Consider a spinal fusion where vertebral bone is fused together: the result is one of limited movement and flexibility. Not ideal if your bucket list is filled with a life of activity! With artificial disc replacement, the diseased or damaged disc is surgically removed and replaced with an artificial joint, which mimics movement, helps you recover faster and ensures those life goals can still be tackled.
Everything you do each day contributes to your ability to move with ease. Often small habits are overlooked, dietary choices aren’t evaluated, exercise (or lack thereof) isn’t taken seriously, or understood as to how it can affect your spine’s health, your flexibility or your mobility.
All your nerves and limbs attach to your spine, so by maintaining a healthy, mobile and functional spine, we can help you maintain a healthy, mobile and functional body, ensuring you can continue to get the most out of life.
