Dr. Schuler founded Virginia Spine Institute in 1992 to advance the development of contemporary neurological and orthopaedic spinal surgery. Today his knowledge, leadership, and innovative techniques have revolutionized spinal healthcare and restored the lifestyles of tens of thousands nationwide. Over the past 25 years he has grown this award-winning medical practice into the largest multidisciplinary spinal practice in the region. As the Founder and CEO of Virginia Spine Institute, Dr. Schuler continues to pioneer the latest breakthrough in treatment to overcome back or neck pain. He has expanded his practice to include regenerative therapy, stem cell therapy, robotic spine surgery, ultrasonic spine surgery, and enhanced motion-preserving surgical techniques that benefit patients across the globe. In addition to performing the first hybrid multi-level cervical artificial disc replacement with spinal fusion in the country, he has first-hand experience of this procedure from the patient perspective. After suffering from severe neck pain, disc herniations, and nerve compression, Dr. Schuler underwent a hybrid procedure to treat four levels of his spine and is fully recovered and back to his life, pain free. His experience as a patient, having undergone both neck and low back surgery, affords him the unique ability to better understand his patients emotional and physical needs and the recovery process.

Excellent, would recommend wholeheartedly.

Problem solved and pain free with just one surgery. Dr. Schuler was clear with what we were going to do, and took the time to address any questions or concerns we had.

I found everyone open and honest about my condition. Their willingness to listen exceeded my expectations. They explain everything to you and answer all questions until you are comfortable. My overall live is better because of him and his staff.

Disc replacement and front plate

Wonderful. A little time consuming, due to the travel time. Would do it again.

Immediately life changing!

This is by far the most advanced medical practice I have ever been to, in any form of medicine. From the people, to the process, to the care, to the physical location and aestetics, it truly is the best of the best.

Brilliant - best medical care I have ever received.

Dr. Schuler and his team immediately diagnosed my issue and, taking into consideration my personal preferences, developed a minimally-invasive care plan that for the first time in decades has me waking up every morning free from pain.

Awesome experience overall.

I can't express enough gratitude to Dr. Schuler and his wonderful staff. Dr. Schuler is brilliant and very competent. He exceeded my expectations in every way. My surgery was very smooth and the outcome has been great. Before surgery, I was in a lot of pain, I had terrible headaches and other neurological symptoms, after my disc replacement surgery that Dr. Schuler performed himself, all of my symptoms have been resolved. Dr Schuler is the best at diagnosing and delivering quality care for his patients. I will be forever grateful to him. Thank you Dr. Schuler for changing my life!!!

Top Notch

I've seen 5 different neurosurgeons over the course of nearly a decade with no relief prior to seeing Dr. Schuler. I drive about 6 hours to come to these appointments because Dr. Schuler is a miracle worker. He is thorough, competent, and his intervention for me worked. I am thankful that I found Dr. Schuler.

Superior team and the knowledge is remarkable!

Dr Schuler and his team are remarkable and a God send! They have given me my life back. After having two ruptured disc and a broken back they have fixed me completely and I'm pain free and able to do anything that I chose to do. I recommend doctor Schuler and his team to everyone that I know who is having spinal issues. They are the best in the business!

A real Pro!

I couldn't be happier with VA Spine Institute. They are real pros and delivered what was promised. Anyone with back issues should go see them and get a consultation.
