Specializing in advanced surgery and minimally invasive microsurgical techniques, the highly experienced neurosurgeons at the Abington Neurosciences Institute – Jefferson Health care for each patient with concern and compassion.
Our neurosurgeons use the latest technology and precise, exceptional surgical skill to treat conditions of the brain, spine, spinal cord and nerves while protecting healthy areas.
Neurosurgical Help
Among the many conditions treated by our neurosurgeons: tumors, cerebral aneurysm, stroke, intracranial pressure, spinal stenosis, Parkinson’s disease and tremors, vascular abnormalities, concussion, spinal cord injuries, carotid artery stenosis, herniated discs, vertebral fractures, pediatric disorders and neurotrauma.
Neurosurgery Expertise
Our neurosurgeons excel at sophisticated neurosurgical procedures, including stereotactic radiosurgery, deep brain stimulation (DBS) and complex spine surgeries. They use computer-guided intraoperative technology and other leading-edge capabilities.
Many neurosurgeries conducted by our experts are minimally invasive, resulting in smaller scars, less blood loss, less pain and quicker recovery. Our neurosurgeons also participate in clinical trials, giving patients opportunities to access new treatments or methods.
