Brain, Spine & Nervous System (Neurology)
Overview
Every part of the human body depends on the nervous system to
function properly. Nerves carry messages to and from the spine and
the brain, which make up the central nervous system. That is what
keeps the many complex functions of the body running smoothly.
Damage to the brain or the spinal cord can result in a number of
conditions. From complex spine and back surgery, to management of a
chronic condition, to support for people living with epilepsy or
nerve damage, Beverly Hospital offers exceptional care for North
Shore residents.
For example:
- The Spine Center at Beverly Hospital at Danvers is dedicated to
providing advanced, comprehensive and compassionate care for
individuals and their families who are challenged by spine
dysfunction. The Center's multidisciplinary team includes surgeons,
physiatrists, neurologists, interventional pain management
specialists, and radiologists, who collaborate with physicians,
nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists, and
behavioral health specialists. State-of-the-art diagnostic
technology and the most current treatments, including non-surgical
interventions, surgery and pain management, are available to
achieve the best possible outcomes.
- Beverly Hospital's spine and back surgery specialists provide
individuals with the most advanced non-surgical treatments, as well
