  • Welcome To The
    Back Surgery Decision Aid

    Back surgery may or may not be the right choice for you. Only careful discussion with your doctor can help you decide.

    This Decision Aid will lead you through five steps. Some of these steps will begin with a few questions. You can then read and learn about back surgery, based on the answers you have given.

    As you read, ask yourself these questions:

    • How severe are my symptoms?
    • How are my symptoms affecting my life?
    • Have I looked into all the non-surgery treatments?
    • Do I understand what I can expect from surgery?
    • Do these outcomes match up with what I hope expect from surgery?

    You may print out your personal report and bring it to your health care provider, if you wish.
