Neurosurgery Staff
In the hospital of today, surgeons do not work alone. They form the core of a team of dedicated professionals each working in a related specialty. From imaging technicians to operating room nurses, physical therapists and social workers, Children's Hospital Boston attracts highly skilled professionals from a region rich in health care talent.

The most promising young neurosurgeons compete for the opportunity to complete fellowships in the department because they have the chance to learn from renowned and innovative colleagues, but also because they know they can count on outstanding support and care for their patients from the entire hospital community.
