University of Cincinnati Dept. of Neurosurgery

Welcome to the Department of Neurosurgery at the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine. Working in partnership with the Mayfield Clinic & Spine Institute, we are one of the largest groups of neurosurgeons and related specialists in the United States. We are committed to providing our patients with state-of-the-art clinical care in an ethical and caring environment.
And because of the large number of doctors on our staff, we are able to offer our patients specialized expertise in virtually every aspect of neurosurgery.

As teachers, we rank among the best. Year in and year out, the clinical and teaching excellence of our faculty has made our residency in neurosurgery one of the most highly sought-after training programs in the nation.
Also highly coveted are our one-year neurosurgical fellowships in cerebrovascular, general neurosurgery, neurotrauma, pediatric, skull base and spine. Medical students at the University of Cincinnati, along with students from other U.S. medical schools, gain immeasurably from exposure to a premier neurosurgical department during their fourth-year rotations.

Never content with the status quo, we maintain active and growing research programs in various neurological disciplines while striving to develop newer and better treatments for our patients.
