Please join us for an honest, behind-the-scenes look at the challenges encountered along the path to neurosurgery. From difficult rotations and self-doubt to mentorship, and unexpected detours. This event will highlight the resilience required to navigate neurosurgical training.

So honor to be a part of GHHS at Toledo and help this incredible group of students as they start their clinical years!
Recently, medical students going into their third year attended an annual rite of passage: The Student Clinician Ceremony. 🥼 The ceremony is a transitional experience designed to provide guidance, information and support to medical students beginning their clerkships.

Always makes me laugh to look back and see my (not so happy) C7 on scans!
This happy looking bone is the C6 vertebra and is most commonly involved spine in chronic neck pain.

When people ask me why I want to be a functional neurosurgeon, well... this is it!
For World Parkinson’s Day, we’re sharing a perspective that matters most a patient’s. Hear firsthand what life looked like before and after Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) and how advanced treatment can change what’s possible day to day.

Its a typical Wednesday night, sitting in the library studying with my friend and classmate. Tonight, he got a call we've been waiting on for years- there might be a kidney on the way for him. I don't think I've ever felt such excitement, joy, and gratitude for medicine.

I couldn't help but cry some tears of joy and hold my breath in disbelief while I listened to him call his closest family and friends. I'm now sitting in the surgical waiting room at our hospital at midnight, waiting to see from his pre-surgical work up if he is a good match

How incredible it is to be reminded, from the other side this time, how much of a gift medicine is. To know that my friend might be okay because of the monumental sacrifice from this donor and his whole healthcare team. These moments are what keeps us going, fingers crossed!
