We are always so grateful to have the opportunity to help people with TrIgeminal Neuralgia to get relief from their agonizing pain. On the week of New Years Day this year we did 5 microvascular decompressions for Trigeminal Neuralgia (not unusual), providing relief for all of the patients. Two of them have shared thank you notes and were kind enough to all ow me to share them. Thank you to everyone for your support, and your prayers. Dr. Jim Robinson

Daniel's story of his "ThermoNuclear" Trigeminal Neuralgia facial pain, and his cure from this horrific disease in his hour of need. I am truly blessed to have the opportunity to help people like Daniel with Trigeminal Neuralgia, Glossopharyngeal Neuralgia, Hemifacial Spasm, as well as my brain tumor patients. A few weeks back I did 5 microvascular decompression operations for folks with TN in one week, all with relief of pain from surgery. ☺️

Hear Glen's story of the END of his Trigeminal Neuralgia. Such a privilege for me to help so many people with this disorder. We perform one of the highest volumes of this operation in the United States, and with outstanding results.

Such a privilege to care for this awesome, inspiring young man. Hear what Josiah has to say.

Meet Josiah and his wife Lauren. Like so many couples, they enjoy good wine, good food and exciting travel adventures. Things changed when they received some shocking news, Josiah had a large brain tumor, located in his left temporal lobe.

PART 3: Hospital Bloom is the only children’s hospital in El Salvador and provides care for those without insurance, which is 80% of the population of eight million. Unfortunately, the hospital is desperately lacking in technology and funds to provide the optimal level of care. Through incredible providence, I had the opportunity to develop a relationship with the outstanding doctors and nurses at this wonderful institution. Thanks to the generosity of Elekta, makers of the Gamma Knife, I was able to obtain a surgical system and start a minimally invasive Stereotactic Surgery program there. I had the opportunity to train and complete cases with the local neurosurgeons and now they are able to provide more advanced and safer care for many children with brain tumors and other disorders.

Is it a brain tumor? While some neurological symptoms happen suddenly, like a stroke, other symptoms reveal themselves slowly. Here are seven common symptoms of a brain tumor.
1. Headaches, which typically occur on a daily basis, are worse at night, and increase in activity; headaches with nausea and vomiting can be a sign of dangerously high pressure in the brain
2. Weakness (loss of strength) or numbness (poor sensation) in the body or face
3. Trouble expressing or understanding speech or finding words
4. Personality or memory changes
5. Trouble with balance or coordination
6. Vision changes in one or both eyes, such as loss of vision, double vision, or difficulty looking upwards
7. Change in voice, such as hoarseness, or swallowing problems.
If you have any concerns, always consult your family medical doctor to start the journey to wholeness.

To help those suffering with vascular compression from T.N., a microsurgery procedure called MicroVascular Decompression (MVD) has proven very helpful. This highly successful procedure takes about an hour and a half for Dr. Robinson, using neurologic monitoring and endoscopic assistance as necessary to obtain an optimal outcome, with a hospital stay of two days.

PART 2: Gamma Knife Radiosurgery provides a potential cure for some brain tumors and disorders otherwise inoperable. It can also provide an easier outpatient treatment for other patients eliminating the need for open surgery. In 2008, several doctors in the international Gamma Knife community and I formed Medical Radiation Centers (MRC), a social entrepreneurship company, designed to address this global need. Our first project was the Centro Gamma Knife Dominicano at Hospital Cedimat in Santo Domingo. I had the privilege of training and working with a staff of local neurosurgeons who I now count as dear friends. The hospital has treated more than 350 patients including charity cases from the Dominican Republic and Haiti. My colleagues also graciously allowed me to treat additional charity cases from other Latin American countries. It is gratifying to see the quality of care that has developed at the center, and I am fortunate to continue as an active part of this tight-knit team.
