Dr. Scott Glickman is a board certified, multiple fellowship trained neurosurgeon with subspecialty training in neurotrauma and neurocritical care, complex spinal disorders, neurogenic pain, and advanced minimally invasive neurosurgery. He has extensive experience with complex spinal disorders associated with trauma and degenerative processes, traumatic brain and spinal cord injury, spinal tumors, brain tumors, deep brain stimulators, Chiari malformation and the craniocervical junction, stroke and intracranial hemorrhage, spinal fractures and reconstruction, and neurovascular disorders.

Dr. Glickman practiced neurosurgery and neurocritical care in Ohio, Michigan, Oregon, Indiana, California, and Nevada, with additional experience throughout the US, before relocating to Florida. He focuses on providing the highest quality care in surgical and non-operative care of patients with complex neurological conditions and injuries of the brain, spine, and peripheral nerves, especially those associated with trauma and degeneration. He aims for optimal outcomes, patient and provider communication, and patient satisfaction. Neurological and neurosurgical conditions and the need for operative interventions often burden both patients and families. Dr. Glickman prides himself on straightforward explanation of these conditions and a direct approach to the best routes of care, as well as goal and likely outcomes, even if that is not the best news. He takes osteopathic principles seriously, and will consider the whole patient, as well as their specific problems, in order to make the best plan of care in the most timely fashion to do what is best for the patient.

Dr. Glickman has authored numerous articles and abstracts, presents frequently at regional, national, and international symposia, develops new products for spine surgery, and has been involved in resident, medical student, physician assistant, and nurse practitioner education. He instructs Advanced Trauma Life Support through the American College of Surgeons, and served on the Ethics Committee of the Neurocritical Care Society and the Exercise Committee with the North American Spine Society as well as various committees in the American College of Osteopathic Surgeons. He has been a member of many hospital committees serving as Medical Director of the Neuroscience Intensive Care Unit. In addition he teaches other physicians surgical techniques through continuing education programs.
