The Neurology and Neurosurgery departments work with you to determine the best course of treatment for your patient, and keep you apprised of their status. In many cases, patients are referred back to their primary care physician for continued management, while neurology and neurosurgery specialists at Cedars-Sinai remain available for consultation.

The Department of Neurosurgery also holds a weekly Tumor Board to review patient cases and recommend the best course of treatment. Neurosurgeons, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, neurologists, neuroradiologists, pediatric oncologists, neuro-oncologists and neuropathologists all participate in this joint effort. The meeting is open to any doctor who wants to present a case for discussion.
