Second opinionHow I approach a case
I start by understanding your concerns and how your symptoms affect you. I relate the discussion and clinical examination to the images, then we agree on the next step together.
In cranial surgery, the approach is tailored to the individual, with incisions kept as limited as possible and minimal hair shaving, only along the incision line, when necessary and feasible.
