Associate Professor @UCSDNeuroSurg | Spinal Robotics and Minimally Invasive Surgery | once got an award for being an all-around nice guy
La Jolla, CA
Joined February 2020
One of the best lessons imparted to me in medical school is that a commitment to medicine is a commitment to lifelong learning. There are no more tests or exams; just a promise and duty to be the best for your patients. @UCSDNeuroSurg @UCSDHealth @CFS_UCSD @UCSDsurgery

And laminectomies, facetectomies, and pedicle subtraction — all progressive anatomy! I’m glad it helps illustrate hands-on what they’re seeing in the OR, and certainly honored to have small part in the early education of these superstars. 🌟.
Congratulations to our sub-I's on a successful spine lab!. Our #UCSDNeuroSurg sub-I's are mentored from the moment they arrive, get exposure to our world-class facilities and gain the ability to place pedicle screws in a cadaver, T8 to L4, by themselves.

Another successful sub-I spine cadaver lab — freehand pedicle screw placement, laminectomies, facetectomies, and even got to pedicle subtraction. This applicant season is looking bright! . @UCSDNeuroSurg @CFS_UCSD

I have enthusiasm for tech that can help surgeons be even better. PSRs rely on predictive algorithms to achieve alignment goals and reduce postop failures. While I use them with @OsorioSpine @UCSDNeuroSurg, it is only one of many strategies that can ultimately influence outcomes.
Current literature speaks to the ability of patient specific (pre-bent) rods to restore optimal sagittal balance in ASD, thereby achieving preoperative planned alignment goals while reducing operative time. Excellent work from @martinphammd spine lab.

Appreciate the @TheJNS highlight! There certainly was a learning curve as early adopters of single-position lateral 2019-2022; glad to say our current protocols now continue to show equivalent accuracy compared to prone for those interested in SPS robotics. @UCSDNeuroSurg.

Thank you again for the generous visiting grand rounds invite to talk on this topic (for an hour!) about how @UCSDNeuroSurg approaches some of these complex conditions minimally invasively. Glad to see old friends and connect with new ones!.
Thank you @martinphammd for an insightful and engaging grand rounds at @MontefioreNYC this morning. Definitely deepened my appreciation for #spine #neurosurgery and advances in #MIS.

Incredibly proud and excited to see @DrAlexKhalessi lead the Congress — if it is anything like how he has led and advanced the shared goals of our department @UCSDNeuroSurg, I have no doubt this will be one of @CNS_Update’s best years ever 🌟.
Congratulations to our chair @DrAlexKhalessi on becoming president of the Congress of Neurological Surgeons (@CNS_update)! We look forward to his leadership of the world’s leading academic society for #neurosurgeons. Read about his vision for the role ➡️
