Neurosurgery

Unparalleled Surgical Care for Brain Disorders

Your brain, spinal cord and nerves are vital, intricate and complex. So, when you have a neurological condition that requires surgery, you want experts who deliver excellent outcomes. That’s what sets the neurosurgery team at Emory Healthcare apart.

Each of our neurosurgeons specializes in a specific condition and/or neurosurgery treatment. They’re part of a team that includes specialists in neurological imaging, minimally invasive neurological treatments and neurological critical care. Together with dedicated nurses and other medical staff, our doctors provide care and services not found anywhere else in the Southeast.

Emory offers several dedicated centers and programs with expertise to address your unique needs. We work closely with specialists in these areas:

We also offer the only critical care unit staffed by neurointensivists, doctors who specialize in treating critically ill neurological patients.

Emory Second Opinion Program

When you’re diagnosed with a brain or spine condition, decisions about treatment may be difficult. Our neurosurgery specialists can provide a second opinion to help you make a more informed treatment choice. And you can get it remotely, from the comfort of your home.


To request a second opinion, call 678-853-7546 or fill out our online form. A coordinator will contact you to answer your questions and walk you through the process. The fee for a remote second opinion is $500. Most insurance plans do not cover this cost.

Neurosurgery Treatments We Offer at Emory Healthcare

Whether you need surgery to remove a brain tumor or minimally invasive treatment for an aneurysm, you can count on Emory Healthcare.

Some of the neurosurgery treatments we offer include:

Expert Care for Neurological Conditions

Many conditions can affect your brain and nervous system. Our specialists work to find the treatment likely to be best for you. When possible, we suggest nonsurgical treatments before we recommend neurosurgery.

Deep Brain Stimulation

Surgically implanting a device in your brain may allow us to deliver mild electrical impulses. We use this treatment for several neurological conditions, including Parkinson’s disease and epilepsy.

Neurovascular Treatments

Neurovascular treatments address problems in the blood vessels of your brain or spinal cord. Treatment options include procedures in which surgeons pass special instruments through small punctures in arteries or veins rather than opening your skull.
