About Neurosurgeon Mario Ammirati

Board-certified neurosurgeon Dr. Mario Ammirati recently opened his private practice in San Diego after 20+ years of operating his own skull base surgery lab in Ohio. He performs surgery at Sharp Grossmont Hospital and is in-network with Sharp Community Medical Group. Dr. Ammirati has a consistent track record of removing both benign and malignant tumors and performing surgery on other neurological diseases with precision, resulting in minimal or no complications and no new deficits. In fact, Newsweek Magazine published a physician-voted survey in which Dr. Ammirati was listed among the "Top 3% of Neurosurgeons in the U.S. in 2015." Dr. Ammirati has performed 4,000+ procedures on skull base and benign and malignant tumors in the brain and spine. He's known by his peers for correctly diagnosing and treating patients who were otherwise misdiagnosed (e.g. brain tumors hidden behind blood clots, normal pressure hydrocephalus misdiagnosed as dementia/Alzheimer's).
