Patient Resources

Whether you're seeking a first opinion, a second opinion, or you're ready to discuss treatment — this section is designed to make the process easier.

This information is educational and not a substitute for medical advice. Every patient's situation is different — your care team will help tailor recommendations to your diagnosis, symptoms, and goals.

What we offer

Treatments & Technologies

A full range of neuromodulation, radiosurgery, minimally invasive, and open surgical options — matched to your condition, anatomy, and goals.

⚛

Neuromodulation

Implants · Adjustable
  • Robotic Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS)
    Adjustable brain stimulation for tremor, Parkinson's symptoms, and selected dystonias
  • Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS)
    Neuromodulation for chronic neuropathic pain including persistent spinal pain syndrome
  • DRG Stimulation
    Targeted stimulation for focal pain syndromes — often CRPS and localized neuropathic pain
  • Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (PNS)
    Stimulation for select nerve-related pain conditions
𑁍

Incisionless & Minimally Invasive

No implant · Outpatient
  • MRI-guided Focused Ultrasound (MRgFUS)
    Incisionless lesioning/ablation for selected functional indications
  • Gamma Knife Radiosurgery
    Outpatient, incisionless SRS for select functional and tumor indications
  • Laser Interstitial Thermal Therapy (LITT)
    Minimally invasive ablation; biopsy can often be obtained during the same procedure
🧠

Brain Tumors & Lesions

Surgical · Robotic-assisted
  • Microsurgical Resection
    Open surgery for selected tumors/lesions when surgery is the best option
  • Robotic Stereotactic Procedures
    Robot-assisted targeting for precision in select intracranial procedures

Our approach

Treatment Philosophy

Many neurologic conditions have more than one reasonable option — implant-based neuromodulation, lesioning approaches, or radiosurgery. The goal is to match the approach to you.

When to Seek Urgent Care

  • Fever with incision redness, swelling, drainage, or worsening pain
  • New weakness, numbness, facial droop, severe headache, seizure, or sudden confusion
  • Sudden severe worsening of neurologic symptoms

If you're ever unsure, it's better to call your care team or seek emergency evaluation.
