Welcome
to the pediatric neurosurgery home page at the Medical College of Georgia. We’d like to tell you about our program as well as inform you about and provide links for common pediatric neurosurgical conditions.

Pediatric neurosurgery encompasses the spectrum from prenatal evaluation and counseling, to treatment of a premature infant, through treatment into adolescence. We also treat developmental anomalies that can present in adulthood, such as tethered cord. We have the expertise and the facility to provide the highest standard of care for children with neurosurgical issues. Given the complex nature of many pediatric neurosurgical conditions, our division promotes a team approach to preoperative evaluation, perioperative care and surgical intervention. We work closely with pediatric neurologists, epileptologists, and other pediatric subspecialists, such as urologists, endocrinologists, orthopedists, plastic surgeons, and oncologists in order to provide comprehensive care to our patients. Our primary goal and motivation is to ensure that all of our patients have the opportunity to reach their greatest potential.
