Sachse

Sachse, Texas

Texas Spine and Neurosurgery has a local clinic located in Hillsboro where we see patients living in Sachse and the surrounding regions. Patients can be treated locally with all of their conservative therapy care options. If a patient needs surgical therapy, they are able to undergo their procedure at Hill Regional Hospital in Hillsboro where Dr. Zielinski has privileges. There is no longer a need to leave the area in order to obtain first class care for your back or neck.

 

We as a practice want to help and support the local community and strive to provide the best care possible to the citizens of Sachse. As you know Sachse is a city in Collin and Dallas counties in the U.S. state of Texas with a population of approximately 16,000. It was founded in 1891 and was originally known as “Wylie Station.” The town was renamed “Sachse” in honor of local landowner, J.D. Sachse. It has a number of parks, including Sachse City Park, Heritage Park, and Rotary Park. The town is also home to the Sachse Cotton Gin, which was built in 1895 and is the oldest operating cotton gin in Texas. Sachse is also home to a variety of community events and activities, including the Sachse Fall Festival, the Sachse Christmas Parade, and the Sachse Fourth of July Celebration. There is always plenty to do in Sachse.

About Us

Texas Spine and Neurosurgery is a neurosurgical practice which specializes in the coordination of both surgical and conservative treatment options.  We treat herniated discs, spinal stenosis, radiculopathy, spondylolisthesis, spondylosis, pars defects, spinal fractures, back pain, neck pain, carpal tunnel, and many other disorders of the spine and nerves. We are skilled in the use of both microsurgical and minimally invasive procedures on the neck and back, as well as more complicated procedures. At Texas Spine and Neurosurgery we can also do lumbar, thoracic, and cervical discectomies, laminectomies, and fusions. In order to ensure quality, all our partners which  provide operative locations must meet our strict standards for excellence. To that end, we both require and provide specific  training  for staff both inside and outside the operating room. All centers are required to meet state of the art technological standards with regard  to equipment, procedures and protocols in order to become a Texas Spine & Neurosurgery partner.

Whenever possible, conservative treatment options are always considered before surgery.  At Texas Spine and Neurosurgery, we with coordinate with high quality local providers and we help to oversee and coordinate care, including but not limited  to  pain management, physical therapy, anti-inflammatory therapy, bracing, massage therapy, chiropractic  therapy, acupuncture, and pool therapy. Above all, our philosophy allows and encourages patients  to  try  the least invasive treatment before progressing to more invasive therapies.

At Texas Spine & Neurosurgery, we specialize in  the  treatment of disorders of the spine and peripheral nerves, but our  primary goal is to help stop the suffering associated with these disorders.

How We Help

There is no need to travel long distances to access the best in spine care! At Texas Spine and Neurosurgery, we bring advanced technology and treatment options to you. Our founder, Dr. Steven Zielinski, is a Stanford trained spine surgeon and an experienced expert in back and neck surgery. Dr. Zielinski is a pioneer in artificial disc technology and currently holds multiple patents in the area. Through his company, Zielinski Medical Technologies, he has been on several innovation teams, and has expertly designed several products currently used across the nation in spine surgery.

Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery

Dr. Zielinski has routinely performed minimally invasive spine surgery since 1997. In patients that qualify, it is a great way to relieve pain quickly and ensure a smaller incision, with very little down time. Patients who undergo minimally invasive spine surgery are typically able to return home on the same day of their surgery. The minimally invasive approach also tends to decrease the amount of pain associated with surgery. We know your time and ability to return to your regular activities are important. That is why we always strive to provide the highest level of care with the least invasive approach.
