According to a study conducted in 2006 by the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons (AAOS), musculoskeletal symptoms (e.g., pain, ache, soreness, discomfort, cramps, etc.) were the number two reason for physician visits. More than one in four Americans has a musculoskeletal impairment, and these disorders cost the United States nearly $850 billion yearly. The study also showed that there were more than 132 million physician visits for musculoskeletal symptoms and over seven million Americans required hospitalization for orthopedic conditions.

Despite this overwhelming need, the U.S. Department of Labor found that only 3-4% of practicing physicians are orthopedic surgeons, with the number reaching a measly 25,464 in 2008.

In this seemingly neglected profession, Dr. Spyros Panos seeks to stand out. Armed with an undying passion and commitment to serve his patients, he managed to carve out not only a fine curriculum vitae for himself, but also a patient-centered, rounded medical practice that has benefited satisfied and grateful clients.

Plato once said, “The greatest mistake in the treatment of diseases is that there are physicians for the body and physicians for the soul, although the two cannot be separated.” By combining competent medical practice with genuine compassion, Dr. Panos strives to transcend physical treatment, simultaneously dealing with both the disease and the person—a holistic approach to the decadent art of caregiving.
