Dr. Peter Derman Quote:

In spine surgery, less is more. I specialize in minimally invasive and endoscopic techniques. These allow for rapid pain relief and speedy recovery – so you can focus less on surgery and more on getting back to the activities you enjoy!”

Dr. Peter Derman, a minimally invasive and endoscopic spine surgeon at Texas Back Institute, graduated with honors from Stanford University after completing a Bachelor of Science in Biological Sciences. He received his medical degree from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania and concurrently obtained a Masters of Business Administration from the Wharton School of Business. Dr. Derman attended the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York for his residency and completed his Fellowship in Spine Surgery from Rush University Medical Center in Chicago, Illinois.

Dr. Derman spends his time helping patients, conducting medical research and exploring ways to better medicine for future generations. Outside of his professional career, he enjoys spending time with his wife and sons. In his personal time, Dr. Derman enjoys staying fit, sailing and brewing craft beer with his wife.

Leaders in Advanced Spine Procedures

To find out whether you would benefit from artificial disc surgery, make an appointment to visit Texas Back Institute in the Dallas, TX, area for an evaluation. We always reserve surgery as a last resort, so we’ll seek to relieve pain first through conservative treatments such as physical therapy and pain management. If severe pain persists and it is determined that you would benefit from surgery, we can help you determine whether artificial disc replacement is right for you.
