Brief Answer:
NO, we don't talk about spinal spinosis!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for this query.

Please, spinal spinosis is not a diagnosis. I am pretty sure it was intended to be spinal stenosis. I will like that you ask the doctor and make sure that he clarifies this.

Keep me posted. I wish you well and thank you so much for using our services. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
