Cervical Spine Surgery in Kansas City — Adrian P. Jackson, MD
Adrian P. Jackson, MD is a board-certified, fellowship-trained orthopaedic spine surgeon in the Kansas City metro who specializes in the cervical spine. He is Kansas City's only exclusively outpatient, minimally invasive spine surgeon, treating neck and cervical spine conditions with more than 20 years of experience across Kansas and Missouri.
A cervical spine specialist
Dr. Jackson completed his spine fellowship at the Twin Cities Spine Center and has built his practice around the cervical spine. His focus means patients with neck and nerve conditions are cared for by a surgeon who treats these problems every day, with an emphasis on preserving function and a quick return to normal activity.
Cervical conditions treated
- Cervical herniated disc
- Cervical myelopathy (spinal cord compression)
- Cervical radiculopathy (pinched nerve)
- Cervical spinal stenosis
- Degenerative disc disease
- Cervical spine fractures
- Neck pain from cervical spine conditions
- Failed prior neck surgery (revision care)
Cervical procedures
Dr. Jackson performs the full range of cervical spine surgery and selects the approach that best fits each patient's condition — with the goal of relieving pain and nerve compression while preserving function:
- Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF)
- Cervical disc replacement
- Posterior cervical decompression and laminectomy
- Cervical fracture stabilization
- Minimally invasive and revision cervical procedures
A minimally invasive, outpatient approach
Dr. Jackson performs cervical spine surgery using minimally invasive techniques on an exclusively outpatient basis — most patients go home the same day. Smaller incisions and muscle-sparing approaches are designed to mean less tissue disruption, less post-operative pain, and a faster return to normal activity than traditional open, inpatient surgery.
