Dr. Khavkin's bio
This content was provided by Dr. Khavkin "We provide the highest level of care for all spine disorders ranging from back and neck sprains to complex spine deformities and tumors. We also provide neurosurgical treatments for brain diseases. The most common condition we treat is called degenerative disc disease of the spine" or, as we call it, "wear and tear". Every person over 20 years of age experiences these types of degenerative changes and most people will experience neck or back pain during their life time. Only a small number of people require any kind of treatment and an even smaller number require surgery. Fortunately, most patients see improvement with conservative treatment and do not require any surgical intervention.""
Care Philosophy
This content was provided by Dr. Khavkin "Patient outcome is my number one priority. I have experienced staff who have worked with me for years and work with me to inform the patients as well as make them feel comfortable."

The best Neurologist in Nevada if not the world! Probably the most humble and sincerely caring human I know. If you actually get to see him personally you will be blown away at his demeanor and how sincerely caring he is.
