Neurosurgery
Dr. John Morrison treats a variety of neurological conditions from head, neck, back and/ or nerve pain to aneurysms, normal pressure hydrocephalus, acoustic neuroma, head trauma and concussion management, as well as trigeminal neuralgia. He performs endoscopic spine surgery, spinal fusion, cerebrovascular neurosurgery, skull base surgery, peripheral nerve surgery, microvascular decompression, and excision of brain and spine tumors.
“My goal in founding the Morrison Clinic was to be independent and have a level of autonomy to do the cases I want and make my own decisions for my patients, while understanding the responsibility that entails. I accept most insurance policies to give access to as many patients as possible and provide health care that everyone deserves,” explains Morrison.
Q: What are some causes of neck and back pain?
A. Often back and neck pain stems from the part of the spine called the intervertebral disc, which has two parts—the gelatinous part that absorbs the shock, and the fibrous part called the annulus. If you have an annulus tear, it can cause disc herniation, which can cause inflammation, irritation and compressed nerves, leading to shooting pains.
Q: What new technology do you use to treat this pain?
A. We are the only practice performing Discseel® for this type of pain. We test each disc, use a bio glue to seal the annulus, and treat it with exosomes. The goal is healing, relief of pain, and restoration of function.
Q: What enhanced services do you provide patients?
A. We have eight convenient South Florida neurosurgery locations from Stuart to Hollywood to Palm Beach. Further, we have implemented concierge services that include direct access to your neurosurgeon, priority scheduling, pre-operative planning services, and coordination and accommodation assistance for peri- and post-operative care services, including rides to and from appointments.
