The Surgeon

Dr. Mermelstein is Board Certified Orthopaedic Surgeon whose clinical practice places an emphasis on pediatric scoliosis and deformities, osteoporotic fractures and minimally invasive surgical techniques. He was the first surgeon on Long Island to perform the Posterolateral Endoscopic Discectomy procedure (note from me: This is the procedure Harry had in Los Angeles in January.) and continues to be on the forefront of surgical technology. He has lectured extensively at national and international meetings regarding Spinal Biomechanics and Instrumentation and has authored numerous papers and a book chapter on clinically related spinal issues.
