"Don't usually post reviews, esp bad ones (don't want the karma), but after reading what others have said about this Dr, I had to chime in. He literally could not have spent any less time with me. After his PA questioned me, he came in, stayed near the door, told me what was wrong (he NEVER looked at my MRI or even examined me (neither did his PA) and said (quote) "you have 3 options, therapy, injection, operation, your choice". That was it. Never told me any of the risks of any of the 3. I said that I wasn't sure about an operation and that I was in too much pain to go thru weeks of therapy. He said "injection it is" and walked out the door. He was in the room for 45 seconds, MAX. I'm going to see another Dr."

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.
