Robotic-Assisted Surgery
The Medtronic StealthAXIS™ platform pairs a rigid robotic arm with full navigation, allowing Dr. Goodmanson to execute complex fusions with sub-millimeter precision through minimally invasive corridors.
3D Navigation & Planning
Intraoperative 3D imaging maps the patient's unique anatomy in real time, so every screw trajectory is planned and verified before placement — reducing error and radiation exposure.
Precision Instrumentation
Robotic guidance eliminates hand tremor and confirms trajectory accuracy, translating to safer, more predictable outcomes and faster patient recovery.
Lower Radiation, Smaller Incisions
By minimizing fluoroscopy and working through small incisions, robotic-assisted techniques reduce tissue disruption and operative time, supporting a quicker return to daily life.
"Robotic assistance lets us do more with less — smaller incisions, greater accuracy, and a faster path back to a full life."
— Dr. Ryan M. Goodmanson, DO

Patient Stories
In Their Words
Real outcomes from real patients. Their trust is our greatest credential.
"After years of chronic back pain and two opinions elsewhere, the Advanced Spine Center gave me clarity and a real plan. I'm six months post-surgery and back to my life."
R.M.
Minimally Invasive Lumbar Fusion
"The entire experience — from consultation to recovery — felt personal and precise. I never felt rushed. I felt cared for."
S.K.
Cervical Disc Replacement
"I was told by two other surgeons that my case was too complex. Here, they took the time to explain everything and gave me my mobility back."
