Bio
Dr. Roth has dedicated his practice to the care of patients with spinal disorders with a particular interest in minimally invasive surgery and the use of back strengthening to treat back pain. He advocates a holistic approach to patient care with a focus on the promotion of health rather than the treatment of disease. Treatments are considered in the context of the patient’s repertoire of activities and desired function. His interests range from technologically advanced computer-assisted surgery to more elemental approaches including the implementation of aggressive home exercise programs. He recently published a book focusing on the philosophy, paradoxes, and treatment of back pain. Dr. Roth is a long-standing recipient of the New York Magazine’s “Best Doctors, “the Inside Jersey magazine “Best doctors”, the Castle Connolly’s “Top Doctors in the Metropolitan Area”, the “Patient’s Choice Award”, the “Five Stars of Caring Award”, “America’s Top Surgeons”, and “Top Doctors” from Doctors Across America.
He is a member of the American Association of Neurosurgeons, the Congress of Neurosurgeons, the North American Spine Society, the American Spine Society, the Society of Lateral Access Surgeons, the New Jersey Spine Society, the New Jersey Medical Society, the Bergen County Medical Society, and was elected into Alpha Omega Alpha National Medical Honor Society.
His outside interests include exercise, reading, music, and sports.
