About
Dr. Joseph Edward Snavely is an orthopedic spine surgeon practicing in Clermont, Florida, where he operates the Spine and Scoliosis Center. His clinical work spans the full range of spinal conditions and surgical interventions, including lumbar and cervical fusion, microdiscectomy, disc replacement, scoliosis surgery, spinal stenosis surgery, XLIF procedures, and complex revision spine surgery.
Dr. Snavely was among the first surgeons in the United States to adopt the 7D Surgical image-guided navigation system, a technology that improves precision in spinal procedures while reducing patient radiation exposure. His peer-reviewed research, published in journals such as Spine and Clinical Spine Surgery, addresses outcomes in lumbar spine surgery, including the effects of preoperative opioid use and baseline patient-reported health scores on postoperative results. Additional published work has examined iliac crest autograft harvest, needlestick injuries among orthopedic residents, and in-hospital stroke care protocols, reflecting a broad research profile across spine and related clinical domains. He holds licensure in Florida and carries a specialty designation in orthopaedic surgery of the spine.
