Coventry residents in western Rhode Island have convenient access to Dr. Basques at the East Greenwich office, approximately 25 minutes east. As a largely suburban and semi-rural community, Coventry patients represent the broad spectrum of spine conditions — from active individuals with sports-related disc herniations to older adults managing degenerative spinal stenosis and spondylolisthesis. Dr. Basques' minimally invasive TLIF (MIS TLIF) program is particularly relevant for Coventry patients with degenerative spondylolisthesis requiring fusion, as the procedure uses two small incisions rather than the large midline incision of traditional open surgery, dramatically reducing muscle damage, pain, and recovery time.
Dr. Basques sees patients from Washington Village, Anthony Village, Greene, Harris, Coventry Center, Summit, Quidnick and all surrounding neighborhoods. As one of very few spine surgeons in New England offering the complete range of advanced surgical techniques under one roof, he provides Coventry residents with options that go far beyond what is typically available at community hospitals and even many academic medical centers.
