Summary
- As a neurosurgeon at SSM Health, I specialize in performing cerebrovascular, endovascular, spine, and general neurosurgery. I have extensive experience in treating conditions such as acute ischemic stroke, brain aneurysms, AVMs, spinal stenosis, disc disease, scoliosis, brain and spine tumors, trigeminal neuralgia, and spontaneous intracranial hypotension. I work with a multidisciplinary team at our thrombectomy-capable stroke center and network of regional hospitals, providing high-quality stroke care to people of south-Central Wisconsin. Prior to joining SSM Health, I completed my fellowship in Endovascular Surgical Neuroradiology at Cleveland Clinic and my residency in Neurological Surgery at the Cleveland Clinic. I am passionate about advancing the field of neurosurgery and improving patient outcomes through innovative techniques and technologies.
