Our multidisciplinary team specializes in using advanced treatments, including minimally invasive neurosurgery.
Diagnostic services
Our team uses various imaging services to diagnose neurological conditions. We give you access to state-of-the-art diagnostic tools, including on-site magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), to make accurate diagnoses and create treatment plans that meet your individual needs. This includes electromyography (EMG) and evoked potential studies.
Nonsurgical treatments
Neurological treatment starts by working with you to discover how pain affects your everyday activities. We always strive to use noninvasive options whenever possible. Your personalized treatment plan may include follow-up appointments with specialists in physical rehabilitation and pain management.
Minimally invasive neurosurgery
We perform traditional neurosurgeries, such as spinal fusion. Our neurosurgeons also offer the latest minimally invasive surgeries. Many potential benefits are associated with these procedures compared to traditional techniques, including:
- Greater accuracy
- Less postoperative pain
- Less scarring
- Less trauma to your body
- Quicker recovery times
- Shorter hospital stays
- Smaller incisions
Stroke care
A stroke (cerebrovascular accident) occurs when the blood supply to the brain is interrupted or reduced. To minimize the debilitating effects of a stroke, our emergency rooms (ERs) are specially equipped to provide stabilizing care as quickly as possible.
Signs of spinal disease
