Summary

  • Welcome to Neurosurgery Answer, a neurosurgical practice developed by Dr. John Gorecki on the campus of Northside Hospital Forsyth.

    Neurosurgical healthcare is continually evolving and changing amidst progressive research and innovative technology. Treatment advances and an abundance of healthcare resources mean that now, more than ever, patients are proactively looking for answers.

    With extensive, specialized training and over 25 years of neurosurgical experience, Founder of Neurosurgery Answer, Dr. John Gorecki, is dedicated to providing patients with needed answers for problems and injuries involving the brain, spine or nerves.

    For some patients, the “answer” may mean advanced technology and treatment or surgery. Others may benefit from conservative management such as physical therapy, weight loss or pain management.

    John Gorecki takes time to listen, thoroughly evaluate, understand and collaborate with his patients to identify the best options for their individual condition. Whether surgical or nonsurgical solutions are needed, treatment is carefully customized to help ensure patient safety and optimal outcomes.
