Our Process
What Happens Before Any Surgery
-
Review of imaging and records
You send your MRI, CT and prior notes. A neurosurgeon reviews everything before your first call — no unnecessary appointments.
-
Multidisciplinary evaluation
Where relevant, we coordinate with neurology, oncology, radiology and rehabilitation specialists to confirm the right treatment path.
-
Clear options and written consent
You receive a plain-language explanation of surgical and non-surgical options, expected outcomes, risks and costs before consenting.
-
Pre-operative optimization
Medical clearance, medication adjustments and a personalized pre-op checklist ensure you are as safe as possible on the day of surgery.
-
Surgery and recovery plan
Your surgeon performs or directly supervises the procedure, then hands you a written recovery, rehabilitation and follow-up schedule.
Do you need a referral?
Many patients self-refer after reviewing their own imaging. While your insurance may require a referral from a primary care physician, our team will help you obtain one. Contact us to begin the process.
Emergency warning: If you experience sudden severe headache, sudden weakness or numbness, difficulty speaking, confusion, loss of consciousness, or a seizure for the first time, call emergency services immediately. Do not wait for a consultation.
