Comprehensive Spinal and Neurosurgical Care
 
Our goal is to provide quality surgical & non-surgical care, getting each patient back to a healthy and active lifestyle as soon as possible. With the UAB Medicine Neurosurgery Clinic you have the unique option of being referred directly to one of our Neurosurgeons for surgical consultation or, if preferred, referral to our Physiatrist for conservative management of neurosurgical disorders. In most instances patients will not need immediate surgery.
 
Our services include the diagnosis and treatment of surgical disorders of the brain, spine, and peripheral nervous system. We are current on all the latest technology, including the latest in minimally invasive spine surgery.
 
Did You Know?

Humans are born with 33 separate vertebrae. By adulthood, we typically have 24 due to the fusion of the vertebrae in the sacrum. The seven vertebrae of the cervical spine are responsible for the normal function and mobility of the neck.
