At Spine Institute of Waukegan, we pride ourselves on the professional relationships we’ve made within the medical and professional community.  We have aligned ourselves with some of the best qualified Medical Specialists within the Lake County / Cook County region in the State of Illinois, to assist us with management of care with our patient’s. Since our facility is non-surgical in nature and focuses mainly on injury rehabilitation through Physical Therapy, CMT procedures and Work Conditioning / Therapeutic Exercises, we will often need to refer patient’s to the appropriate Medical Specialist for second opinion, co-management of care or possibly more invasive procedures, such as surgery or other if needed.  This of course depends on the severity of injury or illness. 

We have very high standards when it comes to picking the right Medical Physician and believe that we have found a great team of Physician’s who have aligned themselves with our facility and trust us as we do them.  We continue to see great results from these skilled Physician’s who are not only skilled in their profession, but are artistic with there gift and have truly mastered the art of the area they specialize in. 

We welcome you to view the list of MD’s and other Health Care Professionals who are working with our professional team here at Spine Institute of Waukegan, We have attempted to acquire specialists from each field of practice that best suits our needs and with the majority who have already performed multiple successful surgeries with different patients of ours.
