Why choose our Spinal Neurosurgeons?
UNC Neurosurgery’s spinal neurosurgeons provide state-of–the-art management and an individualized treatment strategy for patients with diseases of the spine, spinal tumors, complex spinal deformities such as scoliosis, and degenerative conditions of the spine. Several of our neurosurgeons specialize in complex spinal surgery and have gone through rigorous training and fellowships in spinal neurosurgery.
Our skilled spinal neurosurgeons perform scoliosis surgery on both pediatric and adult patients.
Pediatric Neurosurgery in North Carolina
For more urgent issues, pediatric patients can be seen same day or next day by one of our pediatric neurosurgeons or our nurse practitioners. Our pediatric neurosurgeons utilize advanced imaging and surgical techniques to treat the children of North Carolina that have been diagnosed with conditions that affect the brain and spinal cord.
Epilepsy Surgery in North Carolina
Epilepsy surgery is offered to select patients who have not had success managing their seizures with medication. At the UNC Epilepsy Center, your care team will determine if your typical spells are epileptic seizures and if they are the right types of seizures for surgery.
Brain Tumor and Spine Tumor Treatment
UNC Neurosurgery offers expertise and cutting edge technology when it comes to the surgical treatment of brain tumors and spine tumors. Our neurosurgeons examine and treat many different types of tumors of the brain and spine, including pituitary tumors, in patients of all ages.
Pituitary Tumor Treatment in North Carolina
Our Multidisciplinary Pituitary Tumor Clinic has improved patient care by requiring fewer appointments for our pituitary tumor patients, which leads to a faster diagnosis and pituitary tumor treatment. Great pituitary care requires the input of several different medical and surgical specialists, and we work hard to make these visits as convenient as possible.
Brain Aneurysm Treatment in North Carolina
Brain aneurysm treatment for each patient is determined by the size and location of the brain aneurysm. If surgery is indicated, our neurosurgeons offer two different surgical treatment options for patients with brain aneurysms. The type of procedure is determined based on the patient’s age, health, number of aneurysms, location of aneurysm, and relationship of the aneurysm to the other blood vessels.
UNC Neurosurgery provides advanced adult neurosurgery services in Chapel Hill, Hillsborough, Pinehurst, Rocky Mount and South Boston, Virginia. We offer pediatric neurosurgery clinics in Chapel Hill, Raleigh, Pinehurst and Wilmington.
