.about .noScriptHide .nojs-show,.truncated [data-rem],blockquote .truncated-text{ display: initial !important}.no-js-hide,.ellipsis { display: none; }.truncated:after {content: '' !important}

I was born in Pennsylvania, but I was partially raised in Germany, Holland, and Virginia. I still speak Dutch fluently. I attended Harvard University for my undergraduate degree, majoring in Chemistry, then received my medical degree from Columbia University, and did my Neurosurgery Residency in Boston at Tufts New England Medical Center. After that, I came to Raleigh to start my practice with Raleigh Neurosurgical Clinic. I worked there for 20 years and then founded Rex Neurosurgery with Drs. Robert Lacin and Grant Buttram. I have a general neurosurgical practice, enjoying both brain surgery and spine surgery. My main focus has always been operating and taking care of patients. I am married and have a 25-year-old daughter. In my spare time, I love playing chess, participating in The Porsche Club, solving jigsaw puzzles and crossword puzzles, hiking, and traveling.

I was referred to this Dr from My PCP, from from previous Dr I was told I had Chiari Malformation, and I basically wanted to get this mans Professional opinion on what he thought was going on, and I wanted him to read my MRI. And I wanted him to see if he could help me! Boy was I wrong! He wasn’t in the room 5 mins with me, after I waited 25 for him, as if my time isn’t valuable!! And he never did a exam on me then he tells me there wasn’t a thing he could do, I was having all these issues cause I was overweight, and that I need to just go home and exercise. Didn’t know 150 was overweight! But you can your sweet butt he took the copay 100.00! And for what for him to be a certified Ahole to me! Please people find another Dr!!! He maybe a Angel to some but he was A Certified SOB to me!

Not good enough to cut up a chicken. No skill. Hopes patient will start taking drugs, so he does not have to answer for the horrible surgery that he performed.

Dr. Koeleveld is a true angel! He performed brain tumor surgery on me and from the first moment I met him, he handled me, my condition and my family with care. He was confident, assertive and reassuring throughout the entire project! I will always have a special place in my heart for him especially since I have a second chance at life because of him!

He preformed a miracle on my back. I was in severe pain before surgery and when I woke up from surgery I was pain free. I feel years younger
