Care Philosophy
Dr. Grooms' treatment philosophy centers on prioritizing non-invasive or minimally invasive interventions to address neurological conditions whenever possible. He firmly believes in exhausting non-surgical options, such as medication management, physical therapy, and lifestyle adjustments, before considering surgical interventions. His approach aims to maximize patient safety, improve quality of life, and minimize the potential risks associated with more aggressive procedures, ensuring that surgery is considered only when it is truly the most appropriate and beneficial option for the patient's condition.
