Michael Kapsokavathis, D.O.

Orthopedic Surgery of the Spine

My pledge to you: Transparency and support. We will work together to diagnose the problem and find the best treatment option available.  No smoke or mirrors and no run-around. 

It is a big step to make the appointment to see a surgeon, and I take the trust you put in me very seriously. I recognize how important your mobility and independence is, and that many of my patients travel from out of state to find resolution to their pain. My office is run in a concierge style, with personalized care focused on your needs.

I personally interview and examine all of my patients to ensure effective communication and proper diagnosis.  I do not delegate this responsibility away to anyone else. I make sure that I have enough time set aside for your needs.

I educate myself on leading-edge and minimally invasive techniques, always trying to ensure patients have the best treatment options available.

My job isn't done until you are satisfied.  Welcome to my office.


About Dr. Kapsokavathis:
I am a lifelong resident of Metro Detroit, besides various parts of my education taking me out of the state.  After receiving my degree in Osteopathic Medicine, I completed my orthopedic surgery residency through the Michigan State University.  Following my residency, I completed a fellowship in Spinal Reconstruction through the Harvard/Tufts University system, in Boston.  I do not "dabble" in spine; it is the only thing that I do. Outside of my office and operating room, you will usually find me whipping up meals for my blended family and chasing around my youngest daughters, whom I have forbidden to date until they complete graduate school.
