Whether you need neurology care in an emergency or as you cope with a progressive neurological condition, Tanner Health helps you access expert care from neurology specialists. 

Neurosurgery

Neurosurgery is a specialized medical field that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of diseases or injuries related to the central nervous system. This includes the brain, spinal cord and peripheral nerves.

The main goal of neurosurgery is to improve the patient's quality of life by addressing disorders such as brain tumors, stroke, epilepsy, Parkinson's disease, and spinal disorders. It involves a complex and delicate surgical procedure that requires precision, knowledge and experience. At Tanner Health, we offer cranial, brain and spine surgery.

At Tanner Health, we offer:

  • Microdiscectomy
  • Herniated and degenerative disc repairs and replacements

Advanced stroke care

If you suspect that you or a loved one is having a stroke, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department — every second counts.

The faster a person suffering from a stroke is evaluated and undergoes appropriate treatment, the lower the risk of disability or death.

Our stroke team includes highly qualified neurohospitalists who implement leading-edge stroke care protocols. We offer advanced services including:

  • An innovative telemedicine system, enabling certified neurologists to consult virtually — day or night — with emergency department staff.
  • Secure, innovative technology platforms, enabling neurologists to evaluate, diagnose and prescribe treatment for stroke patients.
  • Care through our rehabilitation services and neurology follow-up to help you recover after a stroke.

Stroke care locations

Tanner Health System facilities are stroke care-designated through the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association and The Joint Commission. We offer services at the following locations:

  • Primary Stroke Center at Tanner Medical Center/Carrollton
  • Primary Stroke Center at Tanner Medical Center/Villa Rica
  • Higgins General Hospital in Bremen, which has earned Advanced Disease-Specific Care Certification for Acute Stroke-Ready Hospitals

The Dangers of High Blood Pressure and When to Seek Help

High blood pressure — or hypertension — is often called the "silent killer" because it can go unnoticed for years while quietly causing damage to your body. It affects millions of people worldwide and significantly increases the risk of heart disease, stroke, kidney failure and other serious health complications. Understanding the dangers of high blood pressure and knowing when to seek medical help can make all the difference in preventing long-term health issues.
