The Brigham and Women's Hospital Stroke and Cerebrovascular Center is dedicated to providing the best diagnosis, treatment and outcomes for patients suffering from a wide range of cerebrovascular diseases and disorders.

We are part of a multidisciplinary program involving a team of neurosurgeons, neurologists, interventional neuro-radiologists, and radiation specialists, who offer a complete spectrum of therapies for the diagnosis and treatment of vascular disorders of the brain and spinal cord.

Our team of surgeons has access to the most advanced technologies, including a hybrid operating room that enables advanced imaging, integrated specialists and multiple procedures to be performed simultaneously. The Center is available 24 hours-a-day, seven days-a-week, for emergency consultations, referrals, and immediate transfers to Brigham and Women’s Hospital.
