Brain Tumor & Skull Base Surgery
Our brain tumor and skull base surgery program provides highly specialized care for patients with both benign and malignant tumors, including meningiomas, pituitary tumors, and acoustic neuromas. Using advanced neuro-imaging and state-of-the-art microsurgical techniques, Dr. Angela Downes focuses on removing tumors while preserving the delicate neurological structures that control movement, vision, and vital functions. We create individualized treatment plans and collaborate closely with oncologists, radiation specialists, and rehabilitation teams to ensure comprehensive care before, during, and after surgery. From diagnosis through recovery, our goal is to restore health and quality of life with precision and compassion.
Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery
Our minimally invasive spine surgery options are designed to relieve pain and improve function while reducing the trauma of traditional open procedures. Conditions such as herniated discs, spinal stenosis, and degenerative disc disease can often be treated through tiny incisions using advanced imaging and specialized instruments. This approach typically results in less blood loss, shorter hospital stays, and a faster return to everyday activities. Dr. Downes and her team carefully evaluate each patient to recommend the most appropriate technique, combining surgical expertise with a strong emphasis on rehabilitation and long-term spine health. We aim to help you regain mobility and confidence with the least possible disruption to your life.
Cerebrovascular & Aneurysm Care
We provide advanced diagnosis and treatment for cerebrovascular conditions, including brain aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), and complex vascular lesions. Dr. Downes is experienced in both open microsurgical and endovascular approaches, allowing her to select the safest and most effective option for each patient’s unique needs. Our comprehensive care begins with detailed imaging and continues through surgery and long-term monitoring to prevent recurrence or complications. By working closely with stroke specialists and interventional radiologists, we deliver coordinated care that protects critical brain function and supports lasting recovery. Patients and families receive clear guidance and compassionate support every step of the way.
Stroke & Craniotomy Procedures
When a stroke or other acute neurological event occurs, immediate access to expert surgical care can be lifesaving. Dr. Downes offers both emergency and elective craniotomy procedures for conditions such as hemorrhagic stroke, traumatic brain injury, and complex tumors. These delicate operations require advanced techniques to relieve pressure, remove clots or lesions, and preserve surrounding healthy tissue. Our team provides round-the-clock care and coordinates rehabilitation services to help patients regain function and independence as quickly as possible. From initial evaluation to post-operative follow-up, we are dedicated to delivering timely, compassionate, and highly skilled treatment for even the most challenging neurological emergencies.
Spinal Fusion & Complex Decompression
For patients suffering from chronic back or neck pain caused by spinal instability, severe nerve compression, or advanced degenerative changes, we offer spinal fusion and complex decompression procedures. These surgeries are carefully planned to stabilize the spine, relieve pressure on nerves, and restore proper alignment. Dr. Downes employs the latest techniques and instrumentation to improve outcomes and minimize recovery time. Our comprehensive approach includes pre-operative counseling, meticulous surgical care, and post-operative rehabilitation to help patients return to normal activities with greater comfort and mobility. The ultimate goal is to reduce pain, restore strength, and improve overall quality of life.
Peripheral Nerve Surgery
Peripheral nerve disorders—from carpal tunnel syndrome and ulnar nerve entrapment to nerve injuries and benign tumors—can cause pain, numbness, or loss of function. Dr. Downes offers expert evaluation and a full range of surgical solutions to relieve pressure, repair damage, and restore nerve health. Using microsurgical techniques and advanced imaging, she tailors each procedure to protect delicate nerve fibers and maximize recovery of sensation and movement. Our team provides personalized care plans, clear explanations, and dedicated follow-up to ensure lasting relief and improved daily function. We are committed to helping patients regain confidence and enjoy a more active, pain-free life.
