Patient Reviews
May 27, 2023
Dr. Field treated me both for a brain mass and lumbar spinal stenosis. Both surgeries were successful and about two years apart. Dr. Field is an extremely skilled surgeon with a warm bedside manner. He discusses each issue in layman’s terms and provides understandable explanations of what the surgery would entail along with the risks in each situation. He is compassionate and understands his patient’s needs. He spends time with patients, listening to their questions, and does not rush through an appointment. I was also very pleased with his immediate staff that included a patient care coordinator, an advanced registered nurse practitioner, and a skilled nurse. Each one was very personable and skilled in their respective position. Kudos goes to each of them for the care that I received. If you are looking for someone that is skilled, caring, and compassionate, I do not think you can find a better physician than him.

About Me

Care Philosophy
  • Dr. Field is recognized as an expert in minimally invasive brain surgery for brain tumors, pituitary tumors, and disorders of the skull base. He has been performing endoscopic skull-base surgery in Central Florida since 2003 and has evaluated more than 2500 patients for these minimally invasive procedures. His research focuses on minimally invasive techniques to treat complex tumors and disorders of the brain and spine using image guided, endoscopic, cellular and robotic-based systems. Dr. Field is one of the first surgeons in the country to integrate neuro-endoscopy into the management of various forms of neurovascular compression syndromes such as Trigeminal Neuralgia and Hemifacial Spasms. Dr. Field also helped to bring both intraoperative MRI (iMRI) and Laser Interstitial Thermal Therapy (LITT) to the region in order to improve the care and expand the treatment options for patients with brain tumors in Central Florida.
