The Oregon Clinic Neurosurgery, together with The Providence Brain and Spine Institute, recently expanded their services to include stereotactic and functional neurosurgical procedures, which use ultra-precise techniques to surgically target abnormal physiologic processes in the brain. These techniques are currently used to treat movement disorders and epilepsy, and several new indications are under investigation including Alzheimer’s disease, depression, obsessive compulsive disorder, Tourette’s syndrome, schizophrenia and traumatic brain injury.

For the past five years, Dr. Charles Mueller, a General Surgeon with The Oregon Clinic Surgical & Burn Specialists, has worked with the non-profit organization Dignity: Liberia to perform obstetric fistula repair surgery on women in Liberia.
