Frequently asked questions

How long does treatment for an aneurysm or AVM last?
The duration of treatment varies significantly depending on the complexity of the case, the type of procedure, and your individual recovery. Some procedures may take only a few hours, but the entire process from preparation to post-operative recovery can extend for several weeks or months, depending on your rehabilitation needs.
What are the costs associated with treatment, and do you offer financing options?
The costs of neurosurgical treatment are highly variable and depend on multiple factors, such as the type of procedure, hospital stay, and specific materials. In our consultation, we will provide you with a detailed estimate once we have evaluated your case. We do not handle direct financing, but we can guide you on how to manage coverage with your health insurance.
What side effects or risks should I expect from surgery?
As with any medical procedure, inherent risks exist. Side effects may include pain, inflammation, and in some cases, temporary or permanent neurological complications, such as weakness or speech alterations. My goal is to minimize these risks through meticulous technique and comprehensive follow-up, but it is crucial that we discuss them in detail before any decision.
What can I expect during my first consultation with you?
During the first consultation, my priority is to listen to you and understand your complete medical history. I will conduct a thorough neurological evaluation and review all imaging studies you may have. I will explain your diagnosis and potential treatment paths in clear language, answering all your questions so you feel informed and at ease.
Are there contraindications for surgical treatment or less invasive alternatives?
Contraindications for surgery are evaluated individually and may include certain pre-existing medical conditions or the inoperability of the case. Regarding alternatives, depending on the type of vascular pathology, we may consider observation, conservative medical management, or endovascular procedures, which are less invasive than open surgery. I will always discuss the best option for your situation with you.
What is the recovery process like after treatment?
Recovery is a personalized and gradual process. After the procedure, I will provide clear instructions for post-operative care, and we will schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your progress. You may require rehabilitation therapy to fully regain your functions, and my team will be there to support you every step of the way.
