Summary

  • I am a Board certified general neurosurgeon with extensive experience in spine but well versed in intra-cranial work, having a very real interest in Neuro-cology. I have performed complex instrumented spine cases, and have experience with clipping aneurysms though few in the past decade. I have always associated with Level I or Level II trauma systems and feel comfortable with critical care and management. The system currently employing me has experienced Covid related financial issues and is downsizing the hospital at which I work, essentially disbanding its Level II trauma system in a cost cutting effort. I work well within groups and systems, and offer compassionate and well reasoned care to my patients. I believe in providing my patients value for their consult dollars and honest, straightforward and complete information regarding their options pertaining to their medical care.
