When individuals think of being on the frontlines, numerous professions come to mind. But what about Neurosurgery? In the Black Hills region, neurosurgeons at Monument Health are prepared to be part of the frontline response when a patient has suffered a trauma to the back, neck, spine or a traumatic brain injury.
“Our highly-skilled neurosurgeons address conditions affecting the brain, spine and central nervous system — areas commonly in need of treatment following a motor vehicle accident or any trauma incident,” said Kyle Schmidt, M.D., from Monument Health Neurosurgery. Just as accidents occur at all hours of the day or night, Monument Health’s Neurosurgery Team is committed to being available anytime they’re needed.
In addition to traumatic neurological concerns, the Neurosurgery Team at Monument Health specializes in treating pain conditions in the lower back, legs, neck and arms. Spinal cord, skull and peripheral nerve disorders are treated as well.
“We offer numerous treatment options based upon the condition, some are surgical and minimally-invasive, while others are non-surgical options or spinal treatments,” said Dr. Schmidt.
Dr. Schmidt went on to explain that providing care includes open communication with patients regarding recommended treatment options and answering questions in easily understandable terms. From diagnosis to treatment and beyond, the experts at Monument Health Neurosurgery are prepared to join you on your way to recovery.
