Cervical Disc Disease Treatment for McDonough, GA
Board-certified neurosurgical care for McDonough residents living with cervical disc disease. Same-week appointments, MRI reviews, and minimally invasive options when surgery is right for you.
Why McDonough patients choose Nova for cervical disc disease
If you live in McDonough, Henry County, and you've been dealing with cervical disc disease, your first instinct may be to look toward a downtown Atlanta hospital system. Many of our McDonough patients have quietly made a different choice: Nova Brain and Spine of GA, the practice of Dr. Jerry Walters II and Dr. Marcus Stephens, headquartered 10 miles away in Hampton. The trip is shorter, the parking is free, and the surgeon who reviews your MRI is the same surgeon who will perform your procedure if one is needed.
Comprehensive treatment for cervical disc herniations, cervical radiculopathy, and cervical myelopathy. For McDonough residents, we structure care around three principles: get you evaluated quickly, exhaust non-surgical options first, and — if surgery is right for you — use the smallest, least-disruptive approach that will give you lasting relief.
Symptoms we hear most from McDonough patients
- Neck pain and stiffness
- Pain radiating down one or both arms
- Numbness or tingling in hands and fingers
- Grip weakness or hand clumsiness
- Balance and coordination problems (myelopathy)
