Neurosurgery (known also as neurological surgery) is the surgical specialty focused on the prevention, diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of disorders that affect the spine, brain, nervous system and peripheral nerves.
Neurosurgeons are medical specialists
Our onsite, unique, multi-specialty clinic brings together providers from various backgrounds and clinical expertise. This clinic was created with a vision to be Northern New England’s premier diagnostic and treatment center for spine and musculoskeletal disorders and to complement the neurosurgery practice. The physicians, physician’s assistants and nurse practitioners in our spine center work together as a team to create the very highest standards in patient care.
This is the standard of excellence for Maine Medical Partners Neurosurgery & Spine
“The most challenging cases in neurosurgery are children – brain tumors being the number one cause of cancer in children… As the only fellowship trained pediatric neurosurgeon in the state of Maine, every day is a rewarding and challenging experience – I am fortunate to practice both pediatric and adult neurosurgery with such a skilled Group.”
James T. Wilson, MD, Neurosurgeon
