Surgical Treatments for Herniated Disc
KCM Clinic specializes in minimally invasive endoscopic techniques. These methods use small incisions. They reduce tissue damage and speed up recovery times.
- Nucleoplasty (coblation): A needle-based procedure using radiofrequency energy. It shrinks the herniated disc material. Hospital stay is typically 1–2 days.
- SED-YESS endoscopic discectomy: A precise technique to remove disc fragments. It uses a posterolateral approach with an endoscope.
- Fenestration/Foraminotomy/Discectomy: This surgery removes disc material and decompresses nerves. It often uses a posterior approach.
- Endoscopic Spine Surgery (ESS): A microsurgery for disc herniation removal. It allows for a rapid return to daily activities.
- Laminectomy: A decompression surgery to relieve pressure on spinal nerves. It is used for conditions like spinal stenosis.
Many procedures are available in all-inclusive packages. These often cover surgery, diagnostics, hospital stay, and a rehabilitation plan. Patients can discuss the best option with Dr. Kwiek based on their specific diagnosis. Contact the clinic for a detailed evaluation and personalized treatment plan.

I would like to share my experience in the clinic. The most important thing about the operation, I had a huge hernia and before the operation I was warned about the possible difficulties of removal by the endoscopic method, but the doctor advised me to start with it. A very good doctor - Stanislaw Kwiek, has over 16 years of experience in minimally invasive surgery. The operation was successful. The rehabilitologist is a good woman, she told and showed the exercises and a rough rehabilitation plan. Most of all I didn't like the managers. Before the operation, they assured that it was enough for them to show the tickets, that I was flying to them, and you could pay on the spot. As soon as I showed the tickets, they told me that now I need to pay 20% in advance ... Also, the entire price list was thrown off to me only after I threw off the tickets to them. Part of the expenses was covered by the insurance and the clinic had to return the difference. If before the operation they picked up the phone immediately, then after that I could not get through. The money was returned after 2 weeks, but not the entire amount, I did not understand why, as I think it is useless. In general, if you forget about those who make money and talk only about the honey side, then everything is fine. Good doctor.
