Motion Preservation Surgeon
Stephen McGillion is a Consultant Orthopaedic Spinal Surgeon based in Wessex and provides patients with a specialist type of motion preservation surgery for spinal pathology. This technique allows for patients suffering from spinal pathological issues to regain as much of their natural spine motion as possible. Mr McGillion offers dedicated surgery which involves the replacement of the cervical disc with an artificial implant which replicates the anatomical structure and natural movement of a human disc, therefore allowing the patient to preserve the motion of their spine. Aside from offering traditional cervical and lumbar fusion surgery Mr McGillion offers motion preservation in certain clinical scenarios and will be happy to discuss whether this type of surgery is suitable for you.
Mr McGillion also provides surgery for both NHS and Private Healthcare patients. His NHS practice is based at the Wessex Spinal Unit, University Hospital Southampton, UK and private practice is based at a number of independent hospitals in Hampshire, UK.
