Spine surgeon
Dr. Jessica R. Albanese, MD
Dr. Albanese was born and raised in Las Vegas, Nevada. Her interest in medicine arose during her pre-medical experience working with older adults in a geriatric medicine setting. She later fell in love with orthopedic surgery for its ability to improve patients’ quality of life by reducing pain and improving functional mobility.
Dr. Albanese takes a compassionate approach with each patient and seeks to understand each patient’s concerns, goals of care, and their unique life circumstances. She aims to provide patients with the information they need to make informed decisions together about nonsurgical and surgical treatment options.
Outside of work, Dr. Albanese enjoys live music, traveling with her husband, and getting out in nature.
