My ex husband just had a craniotomy from this dr. He never followed up with us. My husband was in the hospital for 44 days. After surgery dr. Called my son,Very short with him and unprofessional. Said( you have been advised) My husband had a brain abscess and we were told they got it all. After 1 month of not hearing from neurology we requested a Ct scan of my husband’s brain. We were told there was infection and it was spreading.Why wasn’t my husband followed up with this dr for a month until we requested it. My husband passed away on his 44 th day in the hospital. Hope this dr sleeps at night.I have to rate him 1 star because I can’t submit this otherwise. But I give him 0 stars

I strongly do not recommend this neurosurgeon at all.
