Advanced neurosurgical care

Chronic neurological disorders can cause pain and disruption in a person's everyday life. This is why our care teams work one-on-one with each patient and takes the time to understand their unique situation when creating a treatment plan. From non-invasive treatments to advanced neurosurgery, our goal is to help patients heal.

Minimally invasive neurosurgery

Our doctor's specialize in minimally invasive surgical techniques for neurosurgical procedures. This means our surgeons can perform procedures using much smaller incisions than with traditional surgery, a tiny camera and thin, specialized surgical instruments. Because of this, there are many benefits to patients, including:

  • Fewer complications
  • Less harm to surrounding tissue
  • Less postoperative pain
  • Reduced blood loss
  • Reduced scarring
  • Quicker recovery time
