Neurological Surgery, P.C.
is one of the New York City area’s premier Neurosurgical
Groups. We offer patients the most advanced treatments
of brain and spine disorders, using minimally invasive
procedures like Stereotactic Radiosurgery, Microdiscectomy,
Kyphoplasty, and X-STOP® procedures, rather than
major surgery, whenever feasible.
Our physicians are highly educated and specially trained.
They provide compassion combined with knowledge and experience.
They are recognized in the medical community by their
appointments as Chiefs of Neurosurgery in some of Long
Island’s
best hospitals.
We now have nine convenient Long Island neurosurgery facilities
in Nassau and Suffolk Counties with proximity to Queens,
Brooklyn, the Bronx and Manhattan.

- Great
Neck, NY at 600 Northern Boulevard

Centre, NY at 100 Merrick Road
