About Our Department

The neurosurgeons within the LSU Department of Neurosurgery offer treatment for both adult and pediatric patients, who suffer from various neurological disorders. Problems that involve the nervous system often have frightening, perplexing effects on a patient’s body, mind, and senses. Our neurosurgeons understand patients’ anxiety concerning neurosurgery and offer the most careful, compassionate, and comprehensive care in New Orleans.

At the Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center, our treatment of neurological diseases draws upon the knowledge of a multidisciplinary team committed to achieving the best outcomes. Collaborating with LSU’s expansive physician group (including neurologists, neuroanesthesiologists, otolaryngologists, ophthalmologists, orthopedic surgeons, physiatrists and radiologists) our neurosurgeons provide individualized surgical care for New Orleans and the surrounding area.
