The Department of Neurosurgery at UMH Hospital is a center of excellence dedicated to the surgical treatment of disorders affecting the brain, spine, and peripheral nerves. Our team of highly skilled neurosurgeons utilizes state-of-the-art technology and advanced surgical techniques to provide comprehensive care for patients with complex neurological conditions. We are committed to delivering patient-centric, evidence-based care with a focus on precision, safety, and optimal outcomes. From minimally invasive procedures to complex cranial and spinal surgeries, our department is equipped to handle a wide spectrum of neurosurgical disorders with the highest standards of medical excellence.
Our department is led by a team of expert neurosurgeons with specialized training and extensive experience in managing intricate neurological conditions. Their expertise encompasses both traditional and advanced minimally invasive surgical approaches, ensuring that each patient receives the most appropriate and effective treatment.
We employ cutting-edge technology for accurate diagnosis and precise surgical intervention. This includes advanced neuroimaging (MRI, CT), neuronavigation systems, intraoperative monitoring, and microsurgical techniques. These tools allow for targeted treatments, minimized tissue damage, and enhanced safety during complex procedures.
Our neurosurgeons provide comprehensive surgical management for a wide range of conditions affecting the central and peripheral nervous systems. This includes treatment for brain tumors, cerebrovascular disorders (aneurysms, AVMs), spinal disorders, traumatic brain and spine injuries, hydrocephalus, and functional neurological disorders.
Wherever possible, we prioritize minimally invasive (keyhole) techniques. These approaches, such as endoscopic brain surgery and minimally invasive spine surgery (MISS), involve smaller incisions, reduced muscle damage, less postoperative pain, and faster recovery times compared to traditional open surgeries.
Successful neurosurgical care requires a team effort. Our neurosurgeons work in close collaboration with neurologists, neuroradiologists, oncologists, intensivists, and rehabilitation specialists. This integrated approach ensures seamless care from diagnosis through surgery, recovery, and rehabilitation, addressing all aspects of the patient's health.
We understand that neurosurgical conditions can be daunting for patients and their families. Our team is dedicated to providing compassionate support, clear communication, and thorough counseling at every stage. We involve patients in decision-making and provide dedicated post-operative follow-up to ensure a smooth recovery and the best possible quality of life.
