Adena on Daytime Columbus
Dr. Jeffrey Lobel was invited to appear on Daytime Columbus to discuss an advanced spinal procedure he’s doing at the Adena Bone and Joint Center. An Extreme Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion (XLIF) procedure is a revolutionary, minimally invasive spinal surgery.
This procedure allows patients to undergo surgery without large incisions and increases the rate at which they can get back to usual activity. While it can be done for a number of back conditions, an XLIF is most commonly performed for patients suffering from Spinal Stenosis.
Watch Dr. Lobel on Daytime Columbus and learn more about this cutting-edge procedure.
Daytime Columbus is dedicated to serving viewers and advertisers by offering a unique way to showcase people, their stories, services and local events. It airs every weekday from 11 to 11:30 a.m. on NBC4.
Saturday Morning Injury Clinics
As every student athlete and coach knows, strains, sprains and injuries are part of the game. That’s why Adena Health System sponsored Saturday Morning Injury Clinics from August through October.
The clinics were open to all fall athletes in Adena’s 10-county service area. Student athletes suffering from common injuries of the knee, ankle and wrist as well as concussions came to the Adena Bone and Joint Center for the clinic.
Helping our local student athletes and serving our community.
Clinics were conducted by our sports medicine physicians including, Bradley Strauch, MD, Aaron Roberts, MD, and Anthony Lattavo, DO. One of Adena’s certified athletic trainers was also on site to assist with bracing or rehab instruction. Many athletes who attended then opted to continue follow-up with the healthcare professional that provided their treatment during the clinic.
At the Adena Bone and Joint Center, our expert physicians are helping keep our athletes in the game.
