Conditions We Provide Neurosurgical Treatment For in Los Angeles

At California Neurosurgical Specialists, we specialize in treating a wide range of complex neurological and spinal conditions with conservative, minimally invasive treatments and advanced surgical techniques. Here’s an overview of the conditions we treat:

Trigeminal Neuralgia

This causes intense facial pain due to nerve compression. MVD for trigeminal neuralgia alleviates the pain by placing a Teflon sponge between the trigeminal nerve and the compressing blood vessel, preventing further irritation. Dr. Benet is recognized as the best microvascular decompression surgeon in Los Angeles.

Arteriovenous Malformation (AVM)

A tangled web of abnormal blood vessels in the brain can lead to bleeding or neurological issues. As the leading arteriovenous malformation surgeon in Los Angeles, we treat AVMs to prevent complications and restore brain function.

Degenerative Disc Disease

Disc deterioration can lead to chronic back pain and limited mobility. We are recognized as the best degenerative disc disease surgeons in Los Angeles, offering effective surgical solutions when conservative care is insufficient.

Spinal Tumor Biopsy

Identifying the nature of spinal tumors is critical for effective treatment. Dr. Benet’s precision techniques make him the preferred spinal tumor biopsy surgeon in Los Angeles.

Pituitary Tumor Resection & Treatment

Tumors in the pituitary gland can cause hormonal imbalances and other issues. Using minimally invasive techniques, Dr. Benet provides trusted pituitary tumor surgery in Los Angeles.

More From Our Patients

Verified Google Reviews
If saints wore lab coats and surgical caps, Dr. Benet would be whom you would see.  My mother had a bad fall a couple of months ago, and Dr. Benet called me and laid it on the line and cut to the chase - operate now, or she will perish.  Fast forward a few months and some follow-up surgery, Dr. Benet was once again on it, and the best of the best.  Dr. Benet has been my mother's greatest advocate and works selflessly, putting the interests of his patients above all else.  Had he not been on call the night of her accident, it is simple - my mother would be dead.  Finally, I consider Dr. Benet to be a friend.  He is doing what he was put on this Earth to do, and is simply the best of the best.
