A neurologist typically diagnoses and manages conditions medically, while a neurosurgeon like Dr. Yashar provides both diagnostic and surgical treatment when necessary. If imaging has shown structural issues or you're not improving with conservative care, it's time to consult a neurosurgeon.
Dr. Yashar is a board-certified, fellowship-trained neurosurgeon known for his minimally invasive techniques, image-guided microsurgery, and personalized care. His practice combines cutting-edge technology with a boutique, patient-first experience.
Dr. Yashar offers microsurgical resection, image-guided craniotomies, stereotactic radiosurgery (Gamma Knife), and neuroendovascular procedures for brain tumors such as meningiomas, gliomas, and acoustic neuromas.
Yes. Whenever possible, Dr. Yashar prioritizes non-operative and minimally invasive options, including radiosurgery, spinal injections, and observation protocols. Surgery is only recommended when it’s the best path to relief or improved function.
Procedures may involve image-guided navigation, robotic assistance, stereotactic planning, and microsurgical techniques, all designed to maximize precision and minimize risk.
You can call our office at (424) 209-2669 or submit a request through our website. We offer flexible appointment times and can often schedule new patients within a few days.
Please bring any relevant imaging (MRI, CT), your referral (if required), a list of medications, and insurance information. If you’ve had prior treatments or surgeries, those records can also be helpful.
Depending on your diagnosis, urgency, and insurance approval, surgery can often be scheduled within one to two weeks after consultation. Dr. Yashar’s team works diligently to minimize wait times for necessary procedures.
Before your procedure, you’ll meet with Dr. Yashar to review imaging, discuss your surgical plan, and go over any risks or alternatives. Our team provides clear pre-op instructions and answers all your questions.
It depends on the procedure. Some surgeries, such as minimally invasive spinal decompressions, may be outpatient. Others may require one to three days of monitoring in the hospital. We’ll walk you through every step so you feel fully prepared.
Recovery varies based on the surgery, but most patients begin walking the same day or the day after surgery. We’ll tailor a post-op plan that includes activity restrictions, follow-up imaging, and rehabilitation, if necessary.
We work with all major insurance carriers and offer free insurance verification to help you understand your coverage before your appointment. Call us at (424) 209-2669 or fill out the verification form on our website.
