Neurosurgical Expertise in:
Surgery of the spine includes minimally invasive procedures to relieve pain due to a pinched nerve as well as more involved procedures to stabilize the spine or remove tumors. Recent advances include disc replacement, Kyphoplasty, and X-Stop.
Brain surgery includes computer assisted biopsy procedures, removal of brain tumors, removal of blood clots, the treatment of ruptured aneurysms, and moving small blood vessels that cause Trigeminal neuralgia.
The Gamma Knife is an outpatient procedure to stop the growth of tumors, stop blood flow through abnormal blood vessels, reduce pain due to Trigeminal neuralgia, and treat tremor disorders. There is no incision! Patients go home the day of treatment and may return to normal activities the following day.
Most patient's with spine problems do NOT need surgery. For a review of your films, or an office consultation, contact the office, 808.566.6611
