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.

Cranial surgery

Cranial surgery involves precise procedures within the skull to address brain, meninges, and skull base conditions. Our skilled neurosurgeons handle brain tumors, vascular malformations, traumatic brain injuries and more with precision and care.

Brain surgery

Focusing on brain tissue conditions, brain surgery includes tumor removal, epilepsy treatment and neurological disorder management. Our neurosurgeons ensure successful outcomes with expertise and technology.

Reducing your risk

In addition to treatment, we place significant emphasis on the importance of brain health and the implementation of preventive measures to reduce the necessity for interventions. 

To improve your brain health:

  • Get regular exercise
  • Eat a balanced diet
  • Get adequate sleep
  • Ensure mental stimulation

By encouraging lifestyle modifications, early detection of neurological issues, and effective management of risk factors, individuals are able to proactively care for their brain health.

Epilepsy Awareness: Empowering Individuals, Erasing Stigma

Epilepsy is a chronic neurological disorder characterized by recurrent seizures. These seizures are sudden bursts of electrical activity in the brain that temporarily affect its normal functioning. The manifestation of seizures can vary depending on the specific part of the brain involved and the individual.
