My Approach to Patient Care
His approach emphasises careful clinical assessment, appropriate investigations, evidence-based treatment and clear communication with patients and their families.
Neurosurgical conditions can be challenging for patients and their families. Every treatment decision deserves careful consideration, with surgery recommended when clinically indicated and appropriate non-surgical alternatives always considered.
