Fellowship Trained – Spine Surgery

After completing his orthopedic residency at Duke University, he successfully completed his spine surgery fellowship training at the prestigious Twin Cities Scoliosis Spine Center in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Doctor Montella is an enthusiastic proponent of non-operative treatments for spine conditions. He perceives surgery as the option of “last resort”. Dr. Montella is the Medical Director of the Midwest Center for Pain Management.

Former Chicago Bear

Dr. Montella also has a strong interest in sports medicine. He played football in college and was named Sports Illustrated magazine’s offensive football player of the week. He had a brief playing career with the Chicago Bears. He was a team physician for Duke University’s varsity football and basketball teams. He understands the importance of making the appropriate diagnosis and formulating a treatment plan that enables the injured athlete to return to competitive activity as soon as is safely possible.

Nothing pleases Dr. Montella more than seeing his patients back in the game and back to enjoying life.
