Monadnock Community Hospital (MCH) is proud to celebrate a major milestone in our orthopedic program—Vache Hambardzumyan, MD, PhD, FEBS, a leading spine surgeon at Monadnock Orthopaedic Associates, has successfully completed his 100th minimally invasive spine surgery at our facility. This achievement underscores MCH’s emergence as a provider for cutting-edge minimally invasive spinal care.

Advancing Spine Surgery at MCH

Dr. Hambardzumyan started the spine surgery program at MCH, bringing extensive expertise in general orthopedics and minimally invasive techniques. His distinguished background includes fellowship training at Brown University and specialized trauma experience at the University of Maryland Shock Trauma Center, one of the nation’s premier trauma facilities.

“Every successful surgery represents a patient’s journey back to mobility and independence. This milestone reflects not just surgical outcomes, but our entire team’s commitment to exceptional patient care and our ability to deliver spinal procedures right here in the Monadnock region.” – Dr. Vache Hambardzumyan

Improving Lives, One Surgery at a Time

Under Dr. Hambardzumyan’s leadership, MCH’s minimally invasive spine surgery program has achieved remarkable outcomes:

  • 80% same-day discharge rate, allowing patients to recover comfortably at home.
  • Implementation of advanced procedures, including cervical disc replacement and endoscopic discectomy.
  • Higher patient satisfaction scores compared to national benchmarks.
  • Faster recovery times, thanks to enhanced surgical protocols and post-operative care.

MCH now offers a full range of advanced spine procedures, including:

  • Cervical disc replacement – Restoring movement and reducing neck pain.
  • Minimally invasive lumbar fusion – Stabilizing the spine while preserving mobility.
  • Kyphoplasty – A breakthrough procedure for vertebral compression fractures.
  • Endoscopic discectomy – A less invasive way to treat herniated discs.
  • Complex spinal reconstruction – Addressing severe spinal conditions with precision.

Bringing World-Class Minimally Invasive Spine Care Closer to Home

Dr. Daniel Perli, Chief Medical Officer at MCH, highlights the significance of this achievement:

“Dr. Vache’s expertise has enhanced our ability to treat a variety of spine conditions locally. Patients no longer need to travel to major metropolitan areas to receive world-class spine care.”
