Todd M. Raabe, M.D.

Biography

Dr. Todd M. Raabe is board certified by the American Board of Orthopedic Surgery. He specializes in adult and pediatric spinal surgery. His clinical interests include thromboembolic prophylaxis in total joint arthroplasty and techniques and surgically confirmed fusion rates following pseudarthrosis repair in the thoracolumbar spine.

“No one wants to have back surgery. Many people endure years of pain because they want to avoid surgery… or at least delay it as long as possible. I understand, but we have techniques today that can make such a dramatic difference—reducing or eliminating pain, restoring flexibility and mobility. I know that the term ‘back surgery’ is scary, but it’s my job to help my patients understand their options and help them.”
