When surgical intervention is appropriate, he utilizes both open and minimally invasive techniques, in addition to full endoscopic spine surgery, to address each patient's unique case. Dr. Frerich's research program is focused on improving clinical outcomes and reducing complications in spine surgery, as well as broad issues related to population health and medical ethics.
