Gain the confidence you need & deserve in your Brain or Spine Diagnosis
Why get a Second Opinion? Because brain and spine surgery is a big deal. It could mean a lot of time lost from work and family. It may even be a question of life and death or disability.
Here at Midessa Neurosurgery and Complex spine, our Second Opinion program consist of a thorough review of your medical information and images during our weekly surgical case review conference followed by in-office consultation to formulate a comprehensive treatment plan and algorithm.
Our Neurosurgeon and Complex Spine specialist, who is fellowship trained in complex spine, cerebrovascular and skull base surgery from Mayo Clinic and Barrow Neurological Institute, will personally review your information and evaluate you during your consultation.
If unable to come for in-office consultation, we can make recommendations based on review of your diagnostic images and symptoms for a nominal fee.
A Second Opinion from Midessa Neurosurgery & Complex Spine can provide the following benefits:
- Have your treatment plan evaluated by a specialist with fellowship training in both complex spine and complex cerebrovascular surgery
- Identify if all nonsurgical options are thoroughly vetted. We have spine dedicated therapist who use state of the art equipment like the Multi Cervical Unit and FDA approved nonsurgical spinal decompression machine to reduce your changes of needing surgery.
