Dr. Payam Moazzaz is a board-certified orthopedic spine surgeon in Carlsbad at Orthopaedic Specialists of North County, operating from 6121 Paseo Del Norte near the Carlsbad Premium Outlets and recognized as one of the first surgeons in the United States to perform robotic spine surgery using the Mazor X platform at Scripps Memorial Hospital Encinitas. Post-surgical spinal rehabilitation protocols extend into the physical therapy network, including Gaspar Doctors of Physical Therapy for spine-specific recovery programming. His San Diego Spine Fellowship at the San Diego Center for Spinal Disorders and Scripps Green Clinic in La Jolla provided subspecialty training in degenerative, trauma, adult and pediatric deformity, and minimally invasive spinal techniques. With over 800 robotic spine surgeries and more than 4,500 spinal implants placed, his case volume includes complex adult scoliosis corrections spanning multiple vertebral levels — a procedural scope supported by the musculoskeletal care network that includes West Coast Chiropractic Center Carlsbad for conservative-phase management. Multi-level lateral interbody fusion with transpsoas anterior longitudinal ligament release for sagittal plane deformity correction represents the highest-complexity reconstructive procedure performed at this practice.
