Treatment selection depends on neurological examination, imaging, the location and severity of disease, previous treatment and whether a non-operative approach remains appropriate.

His training also includes a visiting fellowship at Singapore General Hospital.

Max also records his participation as a speaker at national and international conferences and workshops.

Patients seeking an opinion for a brain tumour, spinal tumour, disc disorder or complex spinal condition should provide recent MRI or CT images, radiology reports, neurological findings and records of previous surgery or treatment. Many disc problems do not require surgery; the final recommendation should therefore follow specialist review of symptoms, imaging and neurological function rather than the presence of an imaging abnormality alone.
