Testimonial
Together, Dr. Galvan and Cynthia have found value in the relationships and connections they have built through NERVES.
“NERVES has provided us with the opportunity to meet and build relationships with many outstanding colleagues throughout the neurosurgical community. Through NERVES, Cynthia and I have connected with physicians and practice leaders who face many of the same challenges we encounter in our own practice.
One of the greatest benefits of NERVES is knowing that we are not alone. We have a supportive community of colleagues who understand the complexities of running a neurosurgical practice and who are willing to share their knowledge and experiences. We can reach out for guidance, exchange ideas, discuss challenges, and learn from others who have faced similar situations.
The relationships, knowledge, and support we have gained through NERVES have been invaluable. We believe every neurosurgeon and practice administrator should consider joining NERVES. It is a tremendous asset whether you are employed by a health system or working in private practice.”
