Our Approach to Neurosurgery

When you have a neurological condition affecting your brain, spine, or nervous system, it can be life-altering. And while these conditions can often be managed with medicine or non-invasive-treatment, surgery may sometimes be an effective path forward.

Through the Penn Medicine | Virtua Health Neurosciences Program, we apply the latest research, diagnostic techniques, and surgical approaches when developing your treatment plan to help minimize pain and improve your quality of life.

By connecting with our team, you can expect:

  • Surgical expertise: This exceptionally experienced team features nationally recognized neurosurgeons, neurologists, radiologists, neuro hospitalists, nurses, and therapists. Together, we work closely with you and your referring physician to deliver the expert treatment and follow-ups you need.
  • State-of-the-art facilities: Procedures take place in the hybrid operating lab at Virtua Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital. Here, our team has the ability to perform both conventional open and microsurgical procedures.
  • Comprehensive care: For vascular issues and conditions, Penn Medicine neurosurgeons coordinate with our experienced cardiologists to deliver the care you need.
  • Picture of health: The lab features advanced imaging technology that creates a 3D roadmap of the blood vessels within your brain. This, paired with other innovative equipment, empowers our neurosurgeons to treat complex conditions like brain tumors and spinal cord injuries.
