Lateral Skull Base Surgery

Dr. Jay Gantz and Dr. Yael Raz work closely with the Head and Neck Surgery Center team and the Department of Neurosurgery to provide comprehensive care for lateral skull base disorders. Additionally, our team works closely with the Department of Radiation Oncology to provide non-surgical treatment options, if appropriate.

Why aren't there any ratings?

There is no publicly available rating for this care provider for one of three reasons:

  1. They do not see patients.
  2. They see patients but have not yet received the minimum number of patient experience reviews. To be eligible for display, we require a minimum of 30 surveys. This ensures that the rating is statistically reliable and an accurate reflection of patient experience.
  3. They see patients but do not see enough patients to collect a statistically-reliable patient experience rating.
