Welcome to Colorado Spine Partners. I would like your experience with our practice to be a satisfying one. Please let me take this opportunity to introduce you to my team. I have 2 Physician Assistants who specialize in the disorders of the adult spine and surgical treatments of those disorders. They work with me, both in clinic and in surgery. If you are a new patient you will most likely meet one of them first. I also have 2 medical assistants that coordinate the care of my patients, coordinate surgeries and communication with referring physicians, hospitals and imaging centers.
Renee Schuster, MMS, PA-C has been working with me since 2007. She received her Master of Medical Science in Physician Assistant studies from Midwestern University and joined the Virginia Spine Institute in 2001 where she completed a fellowship in spine surgery. She prides herself in advancing her spine-specific knowledge and skills for the benefit of the patients that she has the privilege of treating. She truly enjoys spending time with patients, educating them on their condition and treatment options, and assisting in surgery.
Natasha Kavalenka, CMA has been a medical assistant for over 15 years in general surgery and internal medicine. She coordinates my patients in my clinic. Natasha also communicates with your referring and primary care physician to ensure your entire medical team is well-informed. Natasha speaks fluent Russian. She enjoys meeting new patients and helping them along their healthcare journeys every day.
Lisa Clements, CMA, has had a 36-year career in the medical field (and counting). Most recently she was in orthopedic neurology at the spine center at the University of Colorado. Lisa has lived in 37 states, but she and her family have lived in Colorado, and loved all the outdoor activities it affords, since 1986. Lisa has three horses that board where she volunteers, at the Affinity Ranch for equine therapy. You will meet Lisa when you visit us in our clinic or call us on the phone. Lisa loves being in the sun and strives to make her patients feel warm and welcome.
Tatianah joined our team in 2024 with a 10+ year background in healthcare - primarily neurology and pediatric orthopedic surgery. She works closely with patients and hospitals to schedule surgeries and ensure your surgery process is a smooth one. Tatianah is also the one that communicates with insurance on your behalf. She prides herself on her patient advocacy and patient care.
