Summary

Douglas Hardesty, MD, is a board-certified neurosurgeon in Wheat Ridge, CO, with clinical interests that encompass all aspects of neurosurgery, including brain tumors (both benign and malignant), spine surgery, and trauma. He has a special interest in complex cranial cases, where minimally invasive techniques can lead to excellent outcomes and faster recovery times.

Dr. Hardesty is dedicated to providing each patient with the best possible outcome and the highest quality of life.

“I believe in treating every patient like my own family member. This often means choosing conservative or nonoperative treatments when appropriate, or using minimally invasive techniques when surgery is needed.”
