PGY 6 was amazing - 400+ cases, 15+ publications, several courses and talks. Most importantly, another year filled with beautiful moments with co-residents, mentors, mentees, my family and partner in crime @HaydyGeorge! Looking forward to PGY 7 as enfolded Skull Base fellow!
This past weekend, our 4 new interns went to Houston for the annual SNS Intern Boot Camp. They were able to do hands-on labs, work through cases, and connect with friends from the interview trail. Thank you to the SNS and BCM for hosting & putting it together!
A few pictures of our residents doing some great cases. We’re all about hands-on learning and getting into the OR early. Ready for another exciting week!
Our residents and families had a great time celebrating America’s 250th birthday this weekend! Hope everyone had a fun and relaxing 4th of July🇺🇸🎆
We had a wonderful time honoring our three superstar graduates Drs. Deke Blum, Mustafa Motiwala and Barrett Schwartz last weekend! An evening full of laughter, great food, and even better company. We wish you all the best, and looking forward to your future successes!
Capstone presentations from our chiefs, Deke, Barrett, and Mus! We are lucky to have worked and trained with you. You have impacted all of us and this program in more ways than we can count. Looking forward to watching all your successes in this next chapter!

One of the highlights of this year has been working with @EvaWuMD
I first worked with Eva when she was a PGY-2 in Miami and had the rare privilege of working with her again as a PGY-7 when she returned to Tennessee for advanced cerebrovascular & skull base training.
Over the year:
✅ 350+ cases
✅ 20+ publications
More importantly, she demonstrated the dedication, humility, and talent that will make her a future leader in neurosurgery.
Thank you to @AllanLeviMD and @Ricardokomotar for sending her our way. Her future is incredibly bright! #Neurosurgery #SkullBase #Cerebrovascular
A huge congratulations to our very own Dr. Emal Lesha, MD (@emal_lesha ) on his recent match with Memorial Sloan Kettering for a fellowship in neuro-oncology. Very well deserved. We are so very proud of you!
