Dr. Anthony Yeung is a Board Certified Orthopedic Spine Surgeon, who specializes in diagnosing and treating back pain and sciatica caused by painful traumatic and degenerative conditions of the lumbar spine. He is an internationally renowned world leader in endoscopic spine surgery and the developer of the FDA approved Yeung Endoscopic Spine System (YESS tm). Dr. Yeung was the first to utilize endoscopically guided laser for Selective Endoscopic Discectomy (tm) and Dorsal Endoscopic Facet Rhizotomy in the lumbar spine.

Patients who are told that there is no surgical solution for their condition, who reject fusion, or seek alternative minimally invasive treatment options, have received solid outcomes with Dr. Yeung’s procedure, one that minimizes surgical morbidity by avoiding injury to normal spinal anatomy. The procedure is performed by all DISC surgeons, and is taught in the fellowship program directed by Dr. Anthony Yeung at DISC.

Becker’s Orthopedic & Spine named Dr. Anthony Yeung one of top 100 spine surgeons in the nation in 2011. He was also chosen by his physician peers as a Top Doctor in 2011, and was a finalist in the Business Journal's Health Care Hero Physician Innovator category for his work developing new minimally invasive surgical techniques and patented surgical instruments. Dr. Anthony Yeung, also a leader in international minimally invasive spine organizations, trains spine surgeons around the world.
