Your Mayo Clinic care team

Specialists in neurosurgery at Mayo Clinic also treat serious brain and spine conditions. They perform more than 9,300 surgeries each year and are skilled in advanced procedures such as awake brain surgery, robotic surgery and deep brain stimulation. At Mayo Clinic's campus in Rochester, Minnesota, specialists provide expert care for complex issues such as brain tumors, epilepsy and pediatric neurosurgery. At Mayo Clinic, patients like you receive care from a team of doctors who work together. Neurologists, neurosurgeons, radiologists, child life specialists and other healthcare professionals join forces to create a personalized treatment plan just for you. Your care team may include experts in:

• Surgery.
• Imaging (such as MRI).
• Sleep medicine.
• Pain management.
• Mental health.
• Rehabilitation.
• Heart health.
• Pediatric neurology.

Because all these specialists are on the same team, patients at Mayo Clinic often get faster results and can do more in a few days than what might take weeks elsewhere.

The right care the first time

Successful treatment starts with an accurate diagnosis. Our experts take the time to get it right. In addition to having a neurological exam, you might have other tests so that your doctors can find exactly what's causing your symptoms. Our neurologists and neurosurgeons work with radiologists who use innovative and advanced imaging technologies.
