Andrew is finding new strength and joy in life after he underwent a cervical discectomy with interbody fusion thanks to Dr. Pool at CNSA Greensboro. Andrew is moving forward with renewed strength, confidence, and the ability to embrace life again fully. This is Andrew's inspiring story.

Stress has a way of weaving itself into our bodies—tangling in our shoulders, tightening our backs, and locking our spines into a posture of self-protection. Over time, we may not even realize how much stress we're physically carrying. But our spine does.

At Carolina NeuroSurgery & Spine Associates, we’re lucky to have an incredible team. One standout member is Matt Oberst, a phenomenal Physical Therapist at our Huntersville location. With his vast knowledge and dedication to patient care, Matt has helped countless individuals regain mobility, reduce pain, and return to active lives.

Tim’s battle with back pain began decades ago when he first injured his back in his early 20s while working part-time in landscaping. Over the years, the pain made it harder for Tim to live the life he loved. In his early 60s, Tim’s pain became so intense that it left him relying on a walker. Tim finally consulted with CNSA, and was diagnosed with a herniated disc. He underwent a lumbar laminectomy and decompression to relieve the pressure on his nerves. The transformation was instant and life-changing. Tim was not only able to walk again, but he was soon back to doing the things he loved like; golfing, swimming, and enjoying his life without the crippling pain that once defined his days.

After decades of living with chronic back pain, Joyce’s life was transformed with the help of Dr. Joseph Cheatle and the team at CNSA. Thanks to a successful spinal fusion surgery, Joyce can now enjoy the things she loves again.

We are thrilled to share that twelve of our Carolina Neurosurgery & Spine Associates physicians have been named 2024 Top Doctors by Business North Carolina!
