Description
I have been practicing neurosurgery in Washington, DysC since 1983. I trained at George Washington University. My practice includes both spinal and cranial surgery. I had 12 years of experience with Gamma Knife radiosurgery. I have always been involved in resident education and have served on the faculty of George Washington University, Johns Hopkins School of Medicine and now on the full time faculty of Georgetown University. I generally do not do any pediatrics, however I spent six months at Children's Hospital National Medical Center in DC.
I have a great deal of experience with tumors of the posterior fossa and spinal cord tumors. I have performed many spinal reconstructive operations using wires and bent rods before the days of screws. I spent 30 years covering a Level1 trauma center.
I look forward to being able share my experience and skills with those who have limited access to medical and surgical resources.
