Orthopedic department at Imam Reza Hospital provides spine care for the vast majority of the patients with spinal disorders. Care within our department ranges from simple and common spinal surgeries like lumbar disc and spinal trauma surgeries to surgical treatment of rare and complicated surgeries such as adult spinal deformity, revision surgeries, or spine tumor surgeries.

             Performing complex spinal surgeries definitely require a full 2-year fellowship course after graduating from general orthopedics, but for most simple and common spine surgeries including disc surgeries and spinal trauma, a short 6-month course can also be helpful.

The highlights of  our department are:

• All surgeries are performed under strict academic guidelines
• Our spinal surgeries are well varied.
• The course instructor has a professor degree and has more than one hundred prestigious and international articles.

           All trainees who are a certified as general orthopedic surgeon in their countries will have the opportunity to join us in operation room and take part as hands on trainee. This department is a part of medical school and trainees in all levels are take parts in department’s scientific activities.

            The criteria for entering the training course is passing a written exam and an interview.
