Dr. Bradley is certified by the American Board of Orthopedic Surgery and focuses on orthopedic surgery of the spine, spinal cord injury medicine, spinal fractures and spinal stenosis. He has also presented at local, regional, national and international meetings.
“With the arrival of both the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the ever-increasing black hole that is the FDA, my research focus has moved away from the familiar investigational device exemption study of new technology in spine,” said Dr. Bradley in a Becker’s Spine Review article. “The ever-increasing difficulty and expense of obtaining FDA approval as well as lack of coverage from insurance companies even after FDA approval has all but stopped new innovation in our field.”
Dr. Bradley earned his medical degree at Texas Tech University School of Medicine in Lubbock and completed his residency in orthopedic surgery at University of Kansas Medical Center in Kansas City. He has also completed a spine surgery fellowship at Plano-based Texas Back Institute.
