Experts by your side
Get a second opinion
Brain and spine surgery can be intimidating. A second opinion offers reassurance. We can generally arrange an appointment with a neurosurgeon in 1-3 business days. Check with your insurance plan to see if a second opinion appointment is covered and if Gundersen is considered an in-network or out-of-network provider.
Patient education
Brain or spine surgery is a big decision, but we’re here to help every step of the way. If you have questions about your upcoming surgery or recovery, start by checking out our Patient Education library.
Check with your insurance company to see if you need a referral before making an appointment. Imaging may be required depending on your condition.
