Interventional Pain Medicine, Neurosurgery

1111 Glynco Parkway, Brunswick, GA

Dr. Gary Kaufman sees patients in Brunswick, GA. His medical specialties are interventional pain medicine and neurosurgery.

"I was treated by Dr. Kaufman for 5 years. He personally performed several procedures on me throughout those years. He prescribed powerful narcotics from the very beginning and consistently kept me on them. Then suddenly, he dropped me over those same narcotics. I needed help and he turned his back on me. Thank you Dr. Kaufman for supplying me with an enormous amount of drugs, which led to a serious addiction and then leaving me to suffer on my own. I will never be right again. Because of you, happiness will always elude me. To anyone reading this, take heed; find a caring doctor who will see you through to the end. Someone who you can trust and confide in. This guy collected a hefty sum of money as a direct result of my injuries and then dumped me in the trash when he was finished. He did this at a time when I needed his help the most; battling an addiction which he helped to create. His office practically "black listed" me, which further prevented me from acquiring the help that I so desperately needed. Dr. Kaufman, you could have made a call and referred me. On a positive note, it's easy to get in and out of his office quickly. More patients equals more money. "

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.
