The concepts of evidence-based medicine have been the cornerstone of Dr. Dillin’s education during his spine surgery fellowship in Neurosurgery and Orthopaedic Surgery and the format for decision making in his subsequent practice. The critical analytic features inherent in the ‘best evidence’ approach to patients have permeated his writing and his lectures, allowing ﬂexible adaptation as the science has changed. Since July 1985, Dr. Dillin has been exclusively devoted to clinical spine, interventional spine and spine surgery practice. The combination of clinical critical thinking in conjunction with evidence-based medicine practice, allows spine specialty focus on any Independent Medical Evaluations or Medical-Legal Reviews. He is licensed in California, Texas, Arizona, Florida and Nevada. Dr. Dillin was a partner at the Kerlan-Jobe Orthopaedic Clinic for 35 years. He has career long interests in patient safety, surgical simulation, and medical decision-making. info@independentspine.com 800-211-9877 www.independentspine.com
