Dr. Januszewski evaluates each patient’s spinal biomechanics individually to minimize risk of future complications and additional surgery. He is highly trained in revision surgery for flat back and iatrogenic spinal deformity and scoliosis.He is also trained in cranial surgery with a concentration in skull base - vascular surgery, including craniofacial reconstruction, skull base tumors, temporal lobe surgery, endoscopic endonasal pituitary surgery, and epilepsy.
