At Weill Cornell Medicine Neurological Surgery we treat the whole patient, not just a condition. Before and after treatment for brain and spine conditions, we offer neuropsychological services including pre- and post-operative testing and cognitive remediation and brain mapping prior to surgery. Led by director Heidi Bender, PhD, the team offers evaluation and treatment to patients of all ages. Our neuropsychologists also offer evaluation and care for those who have suffered a traumatic injury.
Bumps and falls are usually not serious (ask any parent or athlete), but traumatic injuries happen more often than you might think. The CDC estimates that 1.7 million people every year suffer a traumatic brain injury (TBI) and 20,000 sustain a spinal cord injury. These injuries can be the result of car accidents, falls, sports, or violence, and they add up to a significant public health concern. Our specialists are expert at treating traumatic injuries to the brain and spine, including traumatic brain injury (TBI) and spine and spinal cord injuries.
