Neurosurgery
You can count on our experienced neurosurgeons to provide the expertise and care you need.
The Springfield Neurological and Spine Institute (SNSI) team at CoxHealth is an area leader in neurosurgical care.
A neurosurgeon is a medical doctor or doctor of osteopathic medicine who specializes in surgery on the brain, spine and peripheral nerve. Our neurosurgery team has advanced training in complex spine and deformity, minimally invasive spine surgery, skull base surgery, endovascular surgery and neurosurgical oncology. The treatment process is a team effort, involving doctors, nurses, physician assistants, nurse practitioners and, most importantly, you and your family.
When we discuss treatment options with you, we will give you information about the benefits and risks and assist you in making a decision that is best for you. If surgery is an option, you will receive counseling about the procedure that is being recommended. When you or a loved one needs specialized care, turn to the largest, most experienced team of neurosurgeons in the Ozarks.
