For more than 30 years, patients from all around the world have come to Johns Hopkins for care of their peripheral nerve problems. Our physicians’ surgical expertise comes from their focused experience in treating nerve dysfunction, trauma and disease. Performing hundreds of these surgeries each year makes our specialists the clear choice for diagnosis and surgical treatment.
