 You have it right... you want a spine specialists.  An orthopedic surgeon who spends his time on knees, hands and ankles is not what you want.  You also don't want a neurosurgeon that spends 80% of his time on brain surgery....   You want someone who's all spine, all the time.  (In addition to that, you want someone good... they are not all created equal.  I don't know a good way to tell the good ones from the bad ones.  They all have many happy patients as well as many unhappy ones.  Meeting a few of either does not tell the story.)
