NJIN evaluates and treats a focused range of neurological and spinal conditions. The list below is a guide to the practice's scope — if your concern is not listed, a consultation can clarify whether NJIN is the right place for your evaluation.
Specialist evaluation and treatment for conditions affecting the brain, including tumors, structural disorders, and traumatic injury.
Evaluation, surgical planning, and management of primary and metastatic brain tumors. Care plans are developed in collaboration with the patient, their referring clinician, and the multidisciplinary team at GWest Centre, with surgical intervention recommended only where clinically indicated.
Assessment and treatment of hydrocephalus — the abnormal accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid in the brain — in both adult and pediatric contexts. Includes shunt assessment and ongoing management.
Acute and follow‑up evaluation for traumatic head injuries, including the assessment of intracranial bleeding, structural damage, and the longer recovery picture for concussion and post‑concussive symptoms.
Evaluation of conditions affecting the blood vessels of the brain, including aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations, and ischemic and hemorrhagic events requiring specialist neurosurgical input.
A focused practice for spinal disease and pain — from common degenerative conditions to complex structural problems requiring surgical intervention.
Specialist evaluation of acute and chronic back pain to identify the underlying cause and recommend the appropriate care pathway — surgical or non‑surgical. Many patients are best served by targeted non‑surgical treatment, and the consultation makes that decision clearly.
Assessment of sciatica — nerve pain radiating from the lower back into the leg — with imaging review and a structured treatment plan. Intervention is recommended when there is a clear anatomic cause and clinical benefit to surgery.
Evaluation of cervical, thoracic, and lumbar disc herniation, including consideration of minimally invasive surgical approaches where indicated and structured non‑operative management where surgery is not the right path.
Assessment and management of cervical and lumbar spinal stenosis — narrowing of the spinal canal that can produce nerve compression and radicular pain — with both surgical and non‑surgical care pathways.
Acute evaluation of traumatic spinal injuries, including fracture assessment, stability determination, and surgical management where indicated for spinal cord and structural injury.
Longitudinal evaluation and care planning for the spectrum of degenerative spinal conditions — including spondylolisthesis, spondylosis, and disc degeneration — with surgical intervention considered only when conservative measures are insufficient.
Specialist‑led care for nerve‑related symptoms and persistent neurological pain that benefits from focused neuroscience evaluation.
Evaluation of chronic neuropathic pain, including pain following injury or prior surgery, to identify whether a specific structural or neurological cause is amenable to targeted treatment.
Assessment of peripheral nerve compression, entrapment, and related conditions — including pre‑ and post‑surgical evaluation for entrapment syndromes that may benefit from surgical decompression.
Specialist evaluation of persistent pain after spine or neurosurgical procedures, with honest assessment of what further intervention can and cannot resolve, and structured ongoing care where appropriate.
The list above is a guide to scope, not an exhaustive index. If your concern is neurological, spinal, or pain‑related, a consultation is the right way to determine whether NJIN is the appropriate setting for your evaluation and care.
