The answer is simple: patients always comes first. It is our belief that when patient care is optimized, then training and research will also be of the highest quality. This approach has allowed our department to be consistent leader in the field of academic neurosurgery for over 50 years.

Overview

Being located in New York City, the NYU Department of Neurosurgery cares for an unusually diverse population of patients. We provide neurosurgical services at three major hospital systems:

• NYU Medical Center - a private university hospital in the public service
  
  
• Bellevue Hospital - the flagship medical center of the HHC system of municipal hospitals
  
  
• Manhattan Veteran’s Hospital - providing subspecialty surgical care to the tri-state area

Many on our faculty maintain leadership positions in the field of neurosurgery and have been responsible for research and innovation that has achieved worldwide recognition. With the most cutting edge technology at their disposal, our faculty are truly committed to the highest level of patient care and resident education.
