Prof. Ashraf is a neurosurgeon with over 30 years of specialization in cerebrovascular and trauma related neurosurgery. In the year 1995, he was credited with performing the first extra-intra cranial bypass surgery in Lahore. His department is one of the centers of excellence known for the management of the complex cases and has been attracting a lot of referrals from within and outside the country including for aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations, Moya Moya disease, and carotid endarterectomies.
Prof. Ashraf has also pioneered the first closed model
Neurocritical care unit in Lahore and has been training neurosurgeons on
advanced invasive techniques in management of traumatic brain injury patients.
The Neurosurgery department, which he set up at Jinnah Hospital Lahore,
provides cutting edge services free of charge and it is a beacon of
neurosurgical care. It is amongst the handful of Centers in Asia to provide
intraoperative CT guiding for surgery and employs modern tactics such as micro
dialysis of the brain and ICP monitoring in surgery.
In the field of pediatric neurosurgery, Prof. Ashraf has a
rich experience in the management of spina bifida, craniosynostosis and Chiari
malformation. He works in a closely knit team with a plastic surgeon to provide
care for craniofacial reconstruction in adolescents for traumatic, iatrogenic,
and congenital skull defects. In addition, he is known for his skill in
treating trigeminal neuralgia and performing high-volume microvascular
decompression (MVD) as well as radio-frequency thermal rhizotomy.
Conclusion
Methods to select the best pediatric surgical neurologist
Prof. Naveed Ashraf holds a distinction among the rest of rheumatologists in
Lahore, Lahore with his years of experience and treasured knowledge that no
others possess which allows him to maintain himself as one of the best doctors
for arthritis treatment or any other autoimmune disease management only because
he learns it more differently and uniquely, i.e., through correct
understandings and practical solutions right within scope before heading home
by finishing clinic hours due on daily basis thus becoming an example not but
still probably alike many national/international forums so true already where
such great practice from Profs including Drs anytime (could) make them qualify
some too further fine hopes however until you become like specialists got
called Professors actually always rightly demands! Not only does he offer top
notch medical knowledge, but also a caring environment for his patients and
family members as well.
