Dr. Wolinsky offered me an appointment immediately after learning about my spinal tumor. He and his team had a preop appointment scheduled that same day with an opening on his surgery schedule a couple of days later. He moved much faster than a neurosurgeon that I contacted at Rush and that is because he likes to remove the tumor as soon as possible to avoid paralysis and nerve damage. I came from Arkansas for my surgery at Northwestern because he is world class. I chose Northwestern over Mayo because of him.
