Neurological Surgery, Neurocritical Care - Complex Spine Surgery, Pain, Traumatic Brain Injury, Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery, Brain Tumors, Ventricle-peritoneal Shunt Surgery, Spinal Cord Injury, Brain and Spine Infections
I did my neurosurgical training at the world renowned Medical College of Virginia now called Virginia Commonwealth University. I also completed a one year fellowship in Neurotraumatology. I am a diplomate in good standing of the American Board of Neurological Surgeons. My first twenty three years of practice experience was as founder and partner in a robust private neurosurgical practice in metro Atlanta. Since then, I have worked as an employed neurosurgeon at several hospitals around the country. Currently I hold a medical license in the state of North Dakota and will soon hold licenses in Wyoming and Florida. I also hold an IMLCC or Compact License currently recognized in thirty seven states and soon to be more. Throughout my career I have treated thousands of traumatic brain and/or spine cases. My surgical tally is easily in the tens of thousands of cases involving the brain and spine.
