Joshua Beckman, MD, is a board-certified neurosurgeon and spine surgeon who sees patients at Neurosurgery One in Lakewood and Denver(Porter Hospital). He has extensive experience in non-surgical treatments and minimally invasive spine surgery for conditions such as herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, failed back syndrome, scoliosis, fractures, and other spine problems that can cause pain or disability.
Dr. Beckman takes a step-by-step approach with his patients, recommending the least invasive and potentially reversible therapies as initial treatment. His philosophy is to create a patient-surgeon team to foster realistic expectations and modify treatments on an individual basis. He encourages second opinions and firmly believes the patient should have the utmost confidence in the surgical plan. If patients require surgery, he offers minimally invasive procedures when possible. Dr. Beckman has experience in treating most spinal conditions and takes a particular interest in adult degenerative scoliosis because so many people develop it later in life but don’t know they have it or that something can be done to treat it.
Dr. Beckman joined Neurosurgery One in August 2021 after serving as the director of spine surgery at San Antonio Military Medical Center, the nation’s largest military hospital and Level I trauma center where he developed special expertise in treating severe spinal and head injuries. As a spine surgeon in the U.S. Air Force, Dr. Beckman treated spinal conditions in military personnel who had some of the most physically demanding jobs in the military including infantry, rescue, and special operations forces.
Dr. Beckman and his family enjoy spending as much time outside as possible, mountain biking, camping, gardening and doing cleanups along the river.
