He has been at the forefront of the surgical progression toward less invasive techniques, using neuro-navigation, image guidance, and other advanced technologies that reduce recovery times for his patients. Dr. Fu obtained his undergraduate degrees from Stanford University and his medical and graduate training in the M.D./Ph.D. program at Albert Einstein College of Medicine. Dr. Fu specializes in minimal access surgery as well as having advanced training in reconstructive, deformity, and oncological spine surgery. (Read more about Dr. Fu.)
“The Weill Cornell Brain and Spine Center is already a leading provider of neurosurgical care on the upper east side of Manhattan,” says Dr. Stieg, “Now we’re able to bring our services to a diverse community of patients who live and work in lower Manhattan and have previously been under-served. It’s a major convenience for them, and a privilege for us, to have this new facility downtown.”
