KEEPS PATIENTS WITH SEVERE HEAD INJURIES CLOSE TO HOME
Kaweah Delta has launched an around-the clock neurosurgery program that
will keep patients from having to go out of the area to be treated for
severe head injuries and neurosurgical conditions.
The new program allows people to get care at Kaweah Delta Medical Center
rather than being transported nearly an hour or more away to be treated
for serious traumatic head injuries as well as a variety of neurosurgical
conditions including traumatic brain injury, brain tumors, brain hemorrhages
and spinal abnormalities (degenerative disc disease, spinal tumors, spine
trauma). Additionally, people can now undergo planned surgeries such as
brain tumor surgery or spinal surgery at the medical center.

-
Spine Surgery: Depending on your condition and the severity of the issue, a neurosurgeon
may perform spine surgery to correct problems with curvature, or to prevent
the condition from getting worse.

Minimally Invasive Surgery: Unlike traditional open surgery, minimally invasive procedures result
in less pain, shorter hospital stays and faster recovery times for most patients.
