Meet Scott Hodges, DO
“I’m honored to lead the new Spine Motion Institute at Rhea Medical Center — the first in our region dedicated to fusion-free, motion-preserving spine care. We offer advanced options like artificial disc replacement to relieve pain without limiting mobility. Every patient’s spine is unique, so our minimally invasive approach is tailored to each person. For our community, that means faster recovery, preserved movement, and exceptional care — without having to travel far.”
– Scott Hodges, DO, Orthopedic Surgeon

Meet Don Duff, FNP-C, DC
“The Spine Motion Institute at Rhea Medical Center is the first center of its kind in our area, focused on modern, motion-preserving treatments that go beyond traditional fusion. Our goal is to help people move freely again — whether that’s enjoying daily activities or embracing life fully. With advanced, fusion-free options, on-site diagnostics, and a dedicated team, patients now have access to world-class spine care right here at home. And that’s a really great thing for our community.”
– Don Duff, FNP-C, DC, Orthopedics
