Long Island, New York, June 14, 2024

Dr. Matthew Collins from St. Paul, MN Awarded a Fellowship in Primary Spine Care

Dr. Mark Studin, the clinical director of the Fellowship in Primary Spine Care, is proud to announce that Dr. Matthew Collins from St. Paul, MN has been awarded a Fellowship in Primary Spine Care. The Fellowship is Certified in Joint Providership from the State University of New York at Buffalo, Jacobs School of Medicine, Office of Continuing Medical Education, Cleveland University Kansas City, College of Chiropractic, and the Academy of Chiropractic. It is the first joint providership program between medical and chiropractic academia.

There has been a growing need for primary spine providers who can accurately diagnosis and efficiently manage imaging and referrals for those with spine pain. This need has been published and discussed in scientific literature. This background behind a primary spine care provider is summarized in this link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primary_spine_practitioner

The Fellowship Program is a 2-year intensive program on the spine and teaches the latest research findings in managing trauma cases and pain management, advanced imaging, collaboration with surgeons to help prevent surgery, and specializing in locating “before non-evident” causes of the pain. Dr. Studin commented, “This program is long-overdue as it gives options to spinal pain sufferers to help locate and treat spinal pain without opiates or other drugs that manage the pain, but not the cause of the pain. They now have an option that has been proven in the scientific literature that realizes outstanding outcomes.”

Dr. Studin further commented, “This Fellowship also bridges the gap between chiropractic and medicine and allows for better collaboration between the professions offering their patients with spinal pain more options to realize better results.”    

After practicing for 25 years in St. Paul, MN, Dr. Matthew Collins has continued his commitment to clinical excellence and is one of the first doctors in the nation to be awarded the Fellowship. With this Fellowship, he hopes to continue advancing primary spine care research and treatment so that more people can be helped by avoiding surgery and unnecessary pain that sometimes persists for a lifetime. Dr. Matthew Collins, currently at the time of award, is the only Doctor of Chiropractic in MN to have earned a Fellowship and has become a “beacon of light” to those seeking solutions to the #1 cause of disability in the nation, back pain.

Getting the best recovery results with any injury starts with the diagnostics. In order to form an effective treatment plan your doctor MUST know what was injured. Luckily, when it comes to spinal injuries, there are only 3 ways that the spine typically injures; you can fracture the vertebrae, you can injure the disc (herniations & bulges), or you can injure the spinal support ligaments that hold your both your spine and you spinal discs in proper alignment.
