Just finished a UBE (biportal) endoscopy at C7–T1 for an HNP adjacent to a prior fusion — less invasive than a cervical TDR and done efficiently in our outpatient ASC.

Just dropped a new Spinal Strength episode with Alek Stroka… on hair loss.

I’m wearing an iRestore laser helmet — part podcast, part sci-fi cosplay, part desperate attempt to save my hairline. 💇‍♂️

Listen, laugh, maybe grow something new. 🎙️
