My main goal is to provide exceptional patient care in the diagnosis and treatment of complex diseases of the brain and spine. As part of a team of experts in Neurosurgery, Neurology, Neuroradiology, and Neurological Critical Care, I work diligently to provide state-of-the art treatment in one of the premier academic institutions of the country. I believe in helping my patients understand their disease and the available treatment options so that they will be able to take control of their own health.
