Neurosurgery Chairman Dr. Charles Branch, Jr. is an international expert in minimally invasive spine surgery, cervical and lumbar disc disease, and spinal stabilization. He has been a pioneer in the development of minimally invasive lumbar interbody fusion techniques that are taught to neurosurgeons worldwide. His early career interests in brain tumors led to the development of the Stereotactic Radiosurgery program at Wake Forest Baptist Health in 1990. In 1999, he was instrumental in bringing the only Gamma Knife in the state of North Carolina at the time to Wake Forest Baptist Health. He is also a co-founder of the Childress Institute for Pediatric Trauma. He serves on the editorial board of the Journal of Neurosurgery- Spine, Neurosurgical Focus, and Journal of Spinal Disorders, and is the former Editor in Chief of The Spine Journal.
Neurology Chairman Dr. Allison Brashear has been the principal investigator in many multi-center trials in the treatment of cervical dystonia and spasticity with botulinum toxin. She is the chair of the American Academy of Neurology Spasticity/Dystonia Advisory Board and has directed national courses designed to teach the technique of botulinum toxin treatment.
