Still waiting for answers — or worse, stuck on a surgical waitlist in Canada? Cancun is a great option.
You’re not alone — and you don’t have to keep waiting. Dr. Aldo Avellaneda offers advanced, patient-centered spine care with no wait times, world-class facilities, and personalized support — just a short flight away.
Spinal surgery addresses various conditions that cause pain and limited mobility. Common conditions treated include:
Lower back pain is among the most common reasons for seeking medical care. It can result from herniated discs, spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, or vertebral fractures. When conservative treatments like physical therapy, medications, and injections fail to provide relief, surgery may be the best option. Procedures such as microdiscectomy, laminectomy, and spinal decompression surgery can alleviate pressure on nerves and restore function.
Sciatica occurs when the sciatic nerve is compressed, causing sharp pain, numbness, and weakness that radiates down the leg. Common causes include herniated discs, bone spurs, or spinal stenosis. If symptoms persist despite non-surgical treatments, lumbar discectomy or laminectomy can relieve nerve compression and significantly improve mobility and comfort.
Damaged or degenerated discs can cause chronic back pain, stiffness, and reduced flexibility. Instead of spinal fusion, which limits movement, artificial disc replacement (ADR) preserves spinal mobility while eliminating pain. This procedure is ideal for patients with disc degeneration or localized disc herniation who want to maintain a full range of motion.
Scoliosis is an abnormal curvature of the spine that can cause postural deformities, pain, breathing difficulties, and functional limitations. Severe cases may require spinal fusion with instrumentation to correct the curvature and stabilize the spine. Dr. Aldo employs cutting-edge surgical techniques to improve spinal alignment and prevent further progression.
Spinal fusion is a procedure that permanently joins two or more vertebrae to eliminate movement between them, providing stability and reducing pain. It is commonly performed for spinal fractures, degenerative disc disease, spondylolisthesis, and severe arthritis. Advances in technology allow for minimally invasive fusion techniques that reduce recovery time and improve surgical outcomes.
Many patients from the U.S. and Canada travel abroad for spine surgery due to long wait times, high costs, and limited access to cutting-edge procedures in their home countries. Mexico, and specifically Cancun, has become a leading destination for international patients seeking world-class spinal care at a fraction of the cost.
Choosing spine surgery in Mexico allows patients to receive world-class treatment without the financial burden or delays often experienced in the U.S. and Canada.
Dr. Aldo is a leading specialist in spinal disorders and minimally invasive surgery. He has trained extensively in Mexico and internationally, mastering the latest techniques in disc replacement, spinal fusion, and scoliosis correction.
Dr. Aldo integrates state-of-the-art surgical technologies to improve precision, safety, and recovery times.
Unlike traditional surgical approaches, Dr. Aldo prioritizes a holistic and integrative treatment plan. He combines:
-Non-surgical therapies before considering surgery.
-Personalized rehabilitation programs to enhance recovery.
-Long-term follow-ups to ensure lasting results and prevent future complications.
Dr. Aldo has successfully treated hundreds of patients, including international cases. His expertise has made him a go-to specialist for individuals seeking world-class spine surgery in Mexico.
