The spine program aims to perform less invasive lumbar fusions with much faster recovery times, the medical group said in an Aug. 27 news release.

“All of our nurses and staff have spine specialty experience and expertise,” said Ronjon Paul, MD, a spine surgeon with DuPage Medical Group. “Patients recover comfortably in a calm and quiet space alongside their family with top-notch concierge-level nursing.”

The Westmont facility is DuPage Medical Group’s third ASC as part of its musculoskeletal institute. Ashish Patel, MD, started an endoscopic spine program at the surgery center in May.

DuPage Medical Group is the largest independent, multispecialty physician group in Illinois, with more than 750 physicians serving patients at more than 100 locations, according to its website.

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
