540 S Governors Avenue, Dover, DE 19904

"I saw Ms. Tartaglione in 2021, at which time she said I should get my back operated on. I had made several appt., but was only referred to the PAs in her office. I finally saw her on my way out on my LAST visit and she started talking to me about how I did not need surgery on my legs. In her after visit notes she wrote I was confused. I never talked to her about any operation on my legs and she was the one confused. Just make sure she is operating on the right body part. Good luck to her and make sure she is not MISS-diagnosing you. "

What is Neurosurgery?

Neurosurgery is the highly skilled specialty devoted to the surgical treatment of issues affecting the brain, spinal cord, and nerves. It is similar to the specialty of neurology, which also treats disorders of the nervous system. Even though there is some overlap, neurosurgery focuses on the surgical treatment of nervous system disorders. However, not every neurosurgery job means surgery -- neurosurgeons may also provide a diagnosis, interpret imaging and test results, or provide non-surgical treatment, depending on the nature of the illness.

Neurosurgeons treat nervous system disorders such as:

Traumatic brain injuries
Brain or spine tumors
Blood clots in the brain
Hydroencephalitis
Aneurysms or stroke
Seizures
Spinal cord injuries
Carpal or cubital tunnel syndromes
Repair of severed nerves
Infections of the brain or spinal fluid

Because the nervous system is both so delicate and so complex, neurosurgery has one of the most rigorous and competitive medical education programs. After college and medical school, it is common for a neurosurgeon to require 7-10 additional years of intense training.

New discoveries in this field allow neurosurgeons to heal and accomplish more than ever before, and they are now able to treat many injuries and illnesses that were once fatal.
