About Me

Dr. Da Paz

I am a board-certified orthopedic spine surgeon dedicated to the comprehensive care of patients
with spinal deformities and complex spinal disorders. With a wide range of surgical experience and advanced fellowship training in spine deformity surgery in Germany, my mission is to help patients improve their quality of life.

My approach combines meticulous surgical technique, evidence-based medicine, and personalized treatment planning.

Welcome

I am passionate about educating patients and their families, ensuring they understand every step of their journey—from diagnosis to recovery.

Beyond my clinical practice, I actively participate in research and teaching, staying at the forefront of innovations in spinal deformity correction and motion-preserving technologies.

My practice is based at the Citadelle Hospital in Liège, where I provide advanced surgical care to patients with challenging spinal conditions.

Our Story

In addition to my hospital practice, I also offer private consultations in the German-speaking region of Belgium.

My goal is to deliver personalized, multidisciplinary care that combines state-of-the-art surgical techniques with a clear, honest discussion of all available treatment options.

To best serve my diverse patient community, consultations are available in French, English, and
German.

Whether you’re facing scoliosis, kyphosis, degenerative deformity, or complications from prior
spine surgery, you’ll find expert care delivered with compassion.

AREAS OF SPECIALTY

We can help you with the following conditions:

Comprehensive Assessment & Non-Surgical Management

Not every patient needs surgery: I provide thorough evaluations and conservative treatment plans including physical therapy, bracing, and pain management.

Spinal Osteotomies & Complex Reconstructions

Advanced surgical procedures to correct severe, rigid, or fixed spinal deformities, restoring alignment and spinal balance.

Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery

Whenever appropriate, I use less invasive techniques to reduce muscle disruption, blood loss, and recovery time.

Degenerative Spinal Disorders

Care for conditions related to disc degeneration, spinal stenosis, and age-related deformities that impact mobility and quality of life.

Kyphosis & Hyperkyphosis Correction

Treatment of excessive forward spinal curvature to restore posture, relieve pain, and improve daily function.

Revision Spine Surgery

Expertise in complex re-operations for patients who continue to experience pain, deformity, or complications after previous spine surgery.
