Board Certified, American Board of Orthopedic Surgery
Minimally Invasive Surgical Spine Specialist
Faisal Siddiqui, MD, FACS, is a board-certified and highly skilled spine surgeon with more than 15 years of experience performing minimally invasive spine surgeries. He has helped thousands of patients find back pain relief through safe and effective surgical treatments.
Originally from Ohio, Dr. Siddiqui earned his medical degree from Vanderbilt Medical School, where he graduated with honors. He completed an orthopedic surgery residency at Strong Memorial Hospital at the University of Rochester Medical Center, where he was recognized as Resident of the Year and given the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation Humanitarian Award.
After his residency, Dr. Siddiqui sought out additional spine surgery training. He completed his fellowship training at the Charlotte Spine Center at Carolinas Medical Center. During his fellowship, he learned how to treat back pain and injuries using the most minimally invasive surgical procedures available today.
In 2007, Dr. Siddiqui joined The Spine Care Center in Manassas. He and Dr. Bassam founded the practice on the principle that surgery should only be used for patients who have no other options. Before deciding to operate on a patient, Dr. Siddiqui ensures they are a good candidate for surgery and that the surgery can be performed safely with minimal risk. Patients are likely to experience lasting pain relief, lower risk of infection, less blood loss, and faster recovery times as a result of his minimally invasive techniques. His careful approach to spinal care helps every patient to find lasting back and neck pain relief.
Dr. Siddiqui’s specialized training has also allowed him to bring new procedures to the D.C. area. He was one of the first surgeons in northern Virginia to perform the minimally invasive Trans1 and Xlif spinal fusion procedures using computer-assisted navigation. During his career, he has performed thousands of procedures, from complex 10-hour surgeries for traumatic spine injuries to 45-minute, minimally invasive endoscopic procedures. He is dedicated to a lifetime of learning and continues to undergo additional training to provide his patients with access to cutting-edge procedures.
Dr. Siddiqui is a recognized expert in spine surgery and has been repeatedly awarded Top Doctor distinctions from the Washingtonian magazine and the Northern Virginia Magazine. Throughout his career, he has published original orthopedic and spine surgery research in numerous peer-reviewed medical journals. He also routinely gives minimally invasive spine surgery lectures to other physicians and medical professionals and has trained multiple physicians in the D.C. area to perform the latest procedures.
In his free time, Dr. Siddiqui enjoys being with his wife and two children. His hobbies include golfing and skiing.
