Overview

I specialize in the treatment of complex sacral, lumbar, thoracic, and cervical spinal disorders in adults using less invasive and open techniques. I have a special interest in the treatment of spinal deformity affecting the cervical or thoracolumbar spine and managing spinal trauma. I aim to care for patients through close collaboration, taking my time to ensure that everyone understands their particular condition and helping each individual make the treatment decision that is right for them and their particular circumstances. Every patient is a person with their own needs and wants, and so I treat each as I would like to be treated at every stage. My team and I are here to help patients with concerns and questions before, during, and after treatment.

I am an orthopedic surgeon with additional training in hand, peripheral nerve, and microvascular surgery. My practice, in particular, focuses on the treatment of acute and chronic peripheral nerve injuries in patients of all ages, from birth to adult. These encompass injuries in both the arms and legs, the brachial plexus, as well as extremity dysfunction that result from stroke, traumatic brain injuries, cerebral palsy, or spinal cord injuries. In our clinic, we strive to listen and systematically work to diagnose the injury in order to present treatment strategies. Treatment may include careful observation with therapy or surgical options that involve nerve decompression, repair, or reconstruction or extremity reanimation through muscle, tendon, or bone-based surgeries. In providing comprehensive multi-disciplinary care to achieve the best outcome, we have established a peripheral nerve team with providers from neurosurgery, plastic surgery, neurology, physical medicine and rehabilitation, radiology, occupational therapy, and physical therapy. Understanding that recovering from nerve injuries takes time, my team and I will be alongside you at each step in your journey toward restoring function and well-being. Dr. Li is rated as an Advanced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Gorham's Disease. His top areas of expertise are Brachial Plexopathy, Radial Nerve Dysfunction, Tenosynovitis, Shoulder Arthroscopy, and Spinal Fusion.
