Practice Philosophy
My practice philosophy is to treat neurological disorders medically and, when appropriate, with
surgery. I strive to perform minimally invasive surgery using up-to-date methods,
including microscopic and endoscopic techniques. My goal is to return my patients to full function
as quickly as possible. I welcome new patients and second surgical opinions.
