Summary
- As a board-certified, fellowship-trained neurosurgeon specializing in spinal surgery, my primary goal is to help my patients overcome neuro-spinal problems so that they can get back to living life on their own terms. I specialize in the most advanced spinal treatments available, ranging from minimally invasive techniques to complex surgeries.
To produce the best possible surgical and lifestyle outcomes, I work in collaboration with a team of fellowship-trained professionals, including experts in orthopedic spine and plastic surgery. Visit online at http://www.drbenjamincohen.com
