As part of Saint Luke’s Marion Bloch Neuroscience Institute, our neurosurgeons collaborate with some of the country’s most accomplished neuroscience specialists in neurology, neurointerventional radiology, and neurological rehabilitation. The multidisciplinary teams hold collaborative case conferences to discuss patient treatment plans.

Our team of physicians, nurse practitioners, and staff are patient-centered and firmly believe in fully educating every patient through each step of the surgery process, from the first office consultation to each post-operative visit.
