Summit Orthopedics
Trevor Wahlquist, M.D., is a spine surgeon at Summit Orthopedics, serving Minneapolis/St. Paul patients. He completed a spine surgery fellowship at New England Baptist Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts. “I love the spectrum of patients I treat, the complexity of spine conditions, and the variety of surgical procedures,” he explains. “Spine diagnosis involves a unique approach to looking at every single problem. You have to rule out so many different possibilities. Whenever a patient reports radiating pain through the groin or leg, they’ve given me 25 different diagnoses to start to think about. Now I get to start asking questions. That sort of puzzle-solving is incredibly engaging.”. Dr. Wahlquist is rated as an Advanced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Facet Joint Syndrome.
