Abstract

The Medical College of Wisconsin Department of Neurosurgery delivers subspecialty adult and pediatric neurosurgical care that is patient-centered, evidence-informed, and value-based. Medical College of Wisconsin research advances the science of neurological disease with the goal of a positive translational effect on clinical care. The department supports an environment of education and scholarship for trainees, faculty, and staff alike. The journey to become a neurosurgical center of excellence was accomplished with the leadership and foresight of the men and women who turned their dreams into reality. The establishment and rise of the department as a national force for neurosurgery and spine is an elegant example of the combination of individual leadership and foresight with synergistic institutional support.
