Neurosurgery

Comprehensive Care

Neurosurgery is the medical specialty concerned with the diagnosis and treatment of patients with injury or disorders of the brain, spinal cord, neurovascular system and peripheral nerves within all parts of the body.

Highly Trained and Well-Qualified

Neurosurgeons are the only medical specialists trained to treat the brain and the entire spine. This medical specialty has more training on the spine and back than any other medical profession, with four years of medical school, seven years of residency and a one- or two-year fellowship.
