- Step into the high-pressure world of spine surgery with our latest video, where we take you behind the scenes to understand what makes being a spine surgeon one of the most daunting professions. The scariest moment? Working meticulously close to the spinal cord, where the slightest misstep can risk paralysis.
In this revealing video, we show how spine surgeons, neurologists, and monitoring technicians work in unison during complex spine surgeries to safeguard against nerve or spinal cord damage. Witness the cutting-edge technology that allows surgeons to monitor nerve signals in real time, a critical tool that aids in preventing paralysis and enabling surgeons to make instantaneous adjustments to protect patient safety and well-being.
Discover the tense moments when surgeons temporarily remove large cages from the spine to assess their impact on neuromonitoring, illustrating the delicate balance between surgical intervention and maintaining nerve function.
But perhaps the most heart-stopping part of all? The wait. Join us as we explore the anxious moments following surgery, where doctors and patients alike wait with bated breath to see if the patient can move their legs. It's a vivid reminder of the risks involved in spine surgery and the incredible precision and care these surgeons must employ to ensure their patients walk away safely.
Whether you're fascinated by the intricacies of medical science, the breakthroughs in surgical technology, or the human stories behind each procedure, this video offers a compelling glimpse into the challenges and triumphs of spine surgery. Dive in to see how surgeons navigate the thin line between risk and reward, all in the name of patient health.

Number of lives this guy is helping is so inspiring. My nephew wants to go into this field in UK
I had thorasic outlet surgery to remove my first rib in order to decompress my nerve. Unfortunately my nerve was right next to the bone so when they removed the bone they had to scrape the nerve off the bone and in doing so they caused the nerve to go into hibernation. It took 2 years before I could start moving a finger, but I did recover and actually delivered Coca-Cola for 6.5 years afterwords and drove a 16 bay tractor trailer.
Dr Webb your personality is so magnetic! You would be a wonderful professor! I could listen to you lecture all day! I am a 62 year old retired woman from SC, and I pray that I can save enough (along with my BCBS insurance) to come an see you. I know that you can help me with my back problem. God Bless😊

I literally just had a l4 l5 lumbar laminectomy 3/29/24 only 3 days ago and I’m already walking around the hospital my lower back is still sore and stiff I also still have my drains in my back the doctors and nurses here at John hopkins hospital in Baltimore MD are really really sweet and extremely patient and great at what they do I’m so happy man to finally have my life back 😢 but I’m saying this to say Thank you Dr Webb for your sacrificing all those years in school so you could come out and help people such as my self and those others who struggle with back and leg my name is Cliff by the way I appreciate all Dr especially spine surgeons cause if it was for people like you I don’t think I could have went on the rest of my life only be a shell of my self y’all gave me hope and I wanted to simply say Thank you for you contribution god bless and ps If there are any typos try not to beat me up to bad about em 😂
Wow, brotha that is really inspiring. How has your recovery been? are you still feeling any type of pain?
You are such an AWESOME doctor,
God bless you from Baton Rouge Louisiana
Hi Dr Webb, I've watched a number of your videos especially the ones regarding what you went through to get where you are and I congratulate you. In my younger days I was working towards and wanted to go to med school but I let other things get in the way and ended up talking myself out that I couldn't do it. Now getting ready to retire from what I am doing it's just a wishful dream. Keep up with your messages to these young ones so they don't do what I did and talk themselves out of their dream.
Thank you!! 🙏🏾
Got shivers down my spine hearing about this. I don't know how you do it Dr. Webb but keep it up!
Is it weird that I wonder how strong a nerve fiber and/or spinal cord is? Like, is it on par with a cooked spaghetti noodle? Weaker? Stronger?
Like how much force to pull it apart. Maybe guy thoughts really are weird...
Guessing is more elastic to the manipulation
My hands would be too unstable to perform spoine surgery...lol
I am taking college A&P right now, and I have been following you for many years. I always come back for inspiration especially around test time. Trying to get a #Webbscore.
That is awesome!
So interesting
Doctor , it is true that a bulging protruding disc iritate the spinal cord (chimicaly )?
In thailand we dont have that neuro monitoring part 😅 (its crowd hos. Lot of patient, low number of staff)
Dr Webb how do you treat patients pain when there on suboxone and the buprenorphine blocks opioids and they require narcotics for pain relief. Do you lean towards something like soma or Valium?
