About Spine Associates in Houston & Beaumont, TX

“I knew what I wanted to do from my first exposure to spine surgery in medical school. What grabbed me was that you could take a child with a severe deformity and—within just a few hours—correct it to the point where it was almost normal.”

All patients are offered an appointment to see Dr. Francis within three days of calling, and on the same day if needed. At every visit, patients are seen directly by Dr. Francis. The referring provider receives a letter or call regarding the patients’ consults within 24 hours. We have built close relationships with teams of neurologists, physical medicine and pain specialists to assure timely delivery of care.

We emphasize the value of conservatism. Because most spine conditions will resolve with non-operative care, we only offer surgery after examining and exhausting all reasonable forms of conservative treatment options.

For the comfort of our patients waiting to be seen, our inviting waiting area features a flat screen television, magazines, and a fully-stocked coffee bar and a charging station for universal smart phones and tablets.
