About me
Dr. Benitez is among a select group of neurosurgeons specializing in both surgical and endovascular treatment of cerebrovascular disease. Renowned for pioneering innovative, life-changing treatments, he has advanced care for patients with strokes, brain aneurysms, epilepsy, and brain tumors. Beyond his surgical expertise, he is deeply committed to patient education and compassionate care.
A recognized leader in minimally invasive epilepsy surgery, Dr. Benitez has also helped advance robotic technology for epilepsy monitoring and treatment.
