When a condition requires specialized assessment, your primary healthcare provider or another specialist may recommend a visit to a neurosurgeon.
Your neurosurgeon will conduct a comprehensive neurological examination comprised of symptom analysis, medical history review and imaging to determine the cause for further evaluation. Based on the results, your neurosurgeon – possibly with assistance from other specialists – will decide which treatment option is best suited for you, whether it be surgical, non-surgical or both.
If surgery is necessary, the neurosurgeon will use advanced technology and techniques to safely and effectively treat your condition. The goal of neurosurgery is to improve or restore normal function to the nervous system, alleviate pain and improve quality of life.
After surgery, your neurosurgeon will work closely with you and your healthcare team to monitor your progress and ensure that you receive the appropriate rehabilitation to aid in your recovery. It is important to follow your doctor’s instructions carefully and attend all of your follow-up appointments to ensure the best possible outcome.
Neurosurgery is a complex medical specialty that requires extensive training and experience. Choosing a qualified, board-certified neurosurgeon is essential to your overall health and well-being.
