The first of its kind available between West Los Angeles County and San Francisco, the Gamma Knife allow doctors to deliver life-saving radiation to areas of the brain that could not otherwise be operated on.

Without making a single cut, the Gamma Knife can treat functional disorders in the brain that doctors once would have considered inaccessible. Not a knife at all, the Gamma Knife offers the precision of surgery without the usual risks of surgery.

In fact, unlike traditional surgery, the Gamma Knife patient is able to have the procedure and go home the same day. There are no incisions and virtually no discomfort or side effects.

Team Approach
Our Gamma Knife center is led by two premiere neurosurgeons, Ron Young, M.D. and Skip Jacques, M.D., who helped pioneer stereotactic radiosurgery in the United States and have performed well over 1,000 Gamma Knife procedures. They are joined by a team of highly skilled neurosurgeons, physicists, radiation oncologists and specially trained nurses. Each team member is with you every step of the way from developing your specific treatment plan through to its completion.
