specialize in diagnosing and surgically treating brain conditions such as tumors, vascular malformations, and hydrocephalus using the latest microsurgical and minimally invasive techniques
offer advanced care for spinal disorders, including herniated discs, spinal tumors, and degenerative disease, with a focus on motion preservation and minimally invasive spine surgery
treat peripheral nerve injuries and compression syndromes through microsurgical nerve repair, decompression, and functional nerve transfers
Functional Disorders (Surgically Treated in Select Cases)
Epilepsy (medically refractory)
Chronic pain (e.g., trigeminal neuralgia via microvascular decompression)
Herniated Discs: When part of a spinal disc pushes out and irritates nearby nerves. Most cases are treated without surgery.
Spinal Canal Stenosis: Narrowing of the spinal canal causing nerve compression. Often age-related and treated conservatively.
Degenerative Disc Disease: Age-related disc wear. Not always painful, but when it is, treatment focuses on symptom relief.
Spondylolisthesis: A vertebra slips out of place, causing back or leg pain. Conservative care is the first approach.
Spinal Fractures: Often due to trauma or osteoporosis. Bracing and pain management are first-line treatments, with surgery only when necessary
Entrapment Neuropathies (Compression Syndromes)
Brachial plexus injuries (including birth palsy and adult trauma)
Nerve transfers (e.g., Oberlin transfer, intercostal to musculocutaneous)
Nerve-related chronic pain (may require neurectomy, decompression, or neuromodulation)
Spasticity and Motor Disorders
