Specializing in orthopedic spine surgery, Dr. Rihn can diagnose and treat a range of conditions affecting the spine. These may include degenerative diseases, arthritic conditions, fractures, tumors, deformities such as scoliosis, and other conditions. Treatment techniques may range from invasive to minimally-invasive surgeries of the spine and vertebrae. However, depending upon the patient's diagnosis and medical history, treatments may be non-surgical in nature.
Trauma surgeons are specifically trained to provide surgical treatment for critically ill or injured patients, with many surgeries potentially being life-saving for the patient. Dr. Rihn provides time-sensitive surgical care in an effort to repair extensive damage to various parts of the body. For example, a patient with a gunshot wound may require the care of a trauma surgeon.
