General Neurosurgery

All of our faculty are recognized experts in one or more areas of Neurosurgery and many have pioneered specialized techniques in these areas, allowing physicians-in-training to understand how multiple fields contribute to exceptional patient care.  Among the procedures our surgeons conduct are: cervical and lumbar decompression (laminectomy), certain fusion procedures, management of hydrocephalus with shunting, operations to improve the outcome of head trauma and stroke, and removal of certain types of brain tumors.
