About Me
I chose lớn pursue neurosurgery as a career because of my fascination with the human nervous system. In medical school, I developed a keen interest in the diseases that afflict the brain and spine and gravitated towards the only field where I could help treat these diseases with my own hands. I focus on disorders of the spine where my first goal is lớn help patients avoid surgery if at all possible. If surgery is needed, I treat patients using the most advanced minimally invasive techniques available in order lớn minimize pain, blood loss, and hospital stay, while maximizing recovery, neurologic function, and quality of life. In my không lấy phí time, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. I am an avid sports người hâm mộ and love lớn eat. I try lớn stay physically fit by going lớn the thể hình and playing ice hockey.
