“My goal as a spine surgeon is to get my patients back to life using the most advanced motion-preserving technologies,” Dr. Blumenthal said on TBI’s website. “This includes lumbar and cervical artificial discs as well as posterior dynamic stabilization and interspinous process distraction.”
Dr. Blumenthal earned his medical degree from the Northwestern University Medical School in Evanston, Ill., and completed an orthopedic surgery residency at the University of Texas Health Science Center in Dallas. He later finished a spinal trauma fellowship at the Midwest Regional Spinal Cord Injury Care System at Northwestern Memorial Hospital in Chicago.
