Beyond the OR: Meet Dr. Jacob Pearson 🩺
What drew Dr. Jacob Pearson to spine surgery? The complex problem-solving. The spine is an intricate mechanical and neurologic system, and even small changes can have a significant impact on how someone moves, sleeps, exercises, and experiences everyday life.
For Dr. Pearson, the most important part of caring for patients is looking at the whole picture—including imaging, physical exam findings, and each patient’s individual goals—to determine whether surgery is the right answer and, if so, which approach is best for them.
His biggest piece of advice for patients? Ask questions. Every patient should leave their appointment understanding:
• What is the problem?
• What does the diagnosis mean?
• What is the plan?
And when he’s away from the OR, you’ll likely find Dr. Pearson fly fishing, golfing, hunting, or spending time with his family. 🎣⛳️🏔️
