Dr. Sanmillan
I have treated more than 600 patients with neurosurgical problems by endoscopic surgery, which makes me a reference in minimally invasive neurosurgery and endoscopic surgery.
I currently perform minimally invasive spinal endoscopy procedures on a weekly basis, which has allowed me to develop and refine the technique and implement a workflow that minimizes risks and complications. With our surgical protocols, the probability of complications, even including minor complications, is less than 1 in 100 patients.
