Shocking Back Pain Fact.
If you live in southwest Idaho, you need to be aware of this shocking fact: Idaho spine surgeons perform back surgeries at a rate of about 18 surgeries per 1,000 enrolled lives.* That might not seem like a lot, but it is a lot more than almost anywhere else in the nation. For example, the average national rate of spine surgeries for Medicare enrolees is less than 4 for every 1,000!** If you or a loved one have been told that you need back surgery, you owe it to yourself to get another, non-surgical opinion.
This is especially important because the success rate for spinal surgery for back pain overall is only about 50%.***
In fact, despite what the ads say, the success rate for most treatments for back pain is not much better.2 No one treatment is universally effective.
At Injury Care Medical Center, we have helped dozens of patients avoid surgery, and dozens more get back to living normal, active, pain-free lives. Contact us today for more information or to arrange an appointment to see how we can help you.

I injured my lower back in a terrible training exercise where i was launched over a concrete aquaduct in my car. I injured my right foot, my lower back, both elbows, and a broken neck. I was treated for depression, surgery on my neck and both elbows. I was forced to see a psychologist who thought i needed additional treatment for my depression. I was advised that I would soon need back surgery.
After slipping further into depression and after seeing all the work comp doctors who told me part of my condition was pre-existing, I found Dr. Randnovich.
Dr. Radnovich changed my life in a matter of weeks. He asked to try his methods to treat my lower back. I did and noticed a change after a few weeks. My depression got better within a week due to the nature and professional care Randnovich proposed. It’s been over two years now and I still do NOT need surgery.
Dr. Randnovich literally changed my life for the better. His care provided the treatment i needed and I highly commend him for his help and care.
Anyone considering back surgery, should consider Dr. Radnovich as a rich source for information and a don’t be surprised if you find out you really DON”t need surger.
Thank you Dr. Randnovich, Your awesome!!!
