The Spine Center

What The Spine Center does

The Spine Center (legal name The Spine Surgery Center) is a privately held, multi-site specialty medical practice focused on the diagnosis and treatment of cervical, thoracic, lumbar, and sacroiliac spine conditions. Founded in 2007 and led by Dr. Saqib Siddiqui, a fellowship-trained orthopedic and spine surgeon, the practice operates six clinics across Texas (Houston/The Woodlands, Dallas/Plano, San Antonio, Corpus Christi, Kingwood) and Florida (Lauderdale-by-the-Sea), serving adult patients with conditions ranging from herniated discs and stenosis to complex deformity and failed prior spine surgery.

The practice delivers care through a broad surgical and nonsurgical catalog. Surgical offerings include minimally invasive spine surgery (MIS), cervical and lumbar disc replacement, microdiscectomy, 360 fusion, anterior cervical/lumbar fusion, lateral lumbar fusion, endoscopic neurectomy, percutaneous screw fixation, revision spine surgery, SI joint fusion using the SI-BONE iFuse system, and posterior cervical facet fusion with the DTRAX system. Nonsurgical care comprises epidural and facet injections, radiofrequency rhizotomy, SI joint injections, the Intracept basivertebral nerve procedure, and spinal diagnostics. The Scoliosis & Deformities Care sub-brand (spinedeformity.com) extends the practice into complex deformity evaluation and reconstruction.

The Spine Center operates a direct-to-consumer fee-for-service model. Revenue is generated through insurance reimbursements (PPO plans accepted; Medicare and Medicaid not accepted) and patient payments for consultations, diagnostics, injections, and surgical procedures. Patient acquisition runs through physician referrals, online presence (website, blog, patient education videos), social media (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn), and third-party review platforms (Healthgrades, Google Reviews). The firmographic lists 1-10 employees, no disclosed revenue, no parent company, and no institutional funding, consistent with a self-funded physician-owned practice.

Products and services

• 360 Fusion Circumferential spinal fusion that stabilizes the spine from both anterior and posterior directions for disc collapse, instability, alignment problems, and nerve symptoms.
• Anterior Cervical Fusion Front-of-neck approach that removes damaged cervical discs, decompresses nerves or spinal cord, and fuses vertebrae with implants and bone graft to relieve neck and arm pain.
• Anterior Lumbar Fusion Anterior approach to the lumbar spine that removes damaged discs, restores disc height with implants, and fuses vertebrae to treat degenerative disc disease and mechanical back pain.
• Cervical Disc Replacement Motion-preserving procedure that replaces a damaged cervical disc with an artificial disc to relieve nerve compression while maintaining neck mobility.
• Lumbar Disc Replacement Motion-preserving procedure that replaces a damaged lumbar disc with an artificial disc to treat degenerative disc disease while preserving spinal movement.
• Lateral Lumbar Fusion Side-approach lumbar fusion that removes damaged discs, restores disc height, and fuses vertebrae, often used for degenerative changes and nerve compression.
• DTRAX Spinal System (Minimally Invasive Posterior Cervical Facet Fusion) Minimally invasive posterior cervical approach using a specialized spinal system to address foraminal narrowing, decompress nerves, and stabilize the cervical spine.
• Microdiscectomy Minimally invasive procedure that removes the portion of a herniated lumbar disc pressing on a spinal nerve to relieve sciatica, leg pain, numbness, and weakness.
• MIS Spine Surgery Minimally invasive surgical techniques using specialized instruments, tubular retractors, and imaging guidance to treat spine problems through smaller incisions.
• Percutaneous Screw Fixation Minimally invasive stabilization that places screws into vertebrae through small incisions and connects them with rods to support unstable segments, fractures, or fusion procedures.
• Revision Spine Surgery Procedures addressing persistent or recurrent problems after prior spine surgery, including failed fusions, adjacent segment disease, hardware issues, and recurrent nerve compression.
• SI Joint Fusion Minimally invasive fusion of the sacroiliac joint using the iFuse Implant System to alleviate lower body pain originating from SI joint dysfunction.
• Spinal Decompression Surgical procedure that relieves pressure on nerves in the cervical, thoracic, or lumbar spine to reduce pain and limit long-term wear on spinal structures.
• Endoscopic Neurectomy Minimally invasive procedure that uses an endoscope to identify and interrupt specific painful sensory nerves that transmit chronic nerve pain signals.
• Epidural Injections Injection of anesthetics and steroids to reduce irritation and swelling around spinal nerves, providing pain relief for nerve-related back and leg symptoms.
• Facet Injections Injections targeting irritated spinal facet joints to calm inflammation, relieve pain, increase flexibility, and improve quality of life.
• Radiofrequency Rhizotomy Nerve ablation procedure that uses radiofrequency energy to disable sensory nerves from transmitting pain signals from cervical, lumbar, and SI joints.
• Spinal Diagnostics Diagnostic evaluation using imaging and clinical assessment tools to diagnose spinal conditions and provide second opinions before treatment.
• SI Joint Injections Diagnostic and therapeutic injections used to identify and treat lower back pain originating from the sacroiliac joint at the base of the spine.
• Intracept Procedure Targeted procedure that directly addresses basivertebral nerves in the lower spine to provide relief for vertebrogenic pain without surgery.
