PODCAST: Today on the WGNS Action Line, listeners learned how today’s rapidly advancing technology is transforming the field of neurosurgery and improving outcomes for patients dealing with brain, spine, neck and back conditions. Joining WGNS' Scott Walker on the air were neurosurgeon, Dr. Ernest J. Wright with the Howell Allen Clinic and Ascension Saint Thomas Rutherford President and CEO Daphne David, who discussed everything from minimally invasive procedures and robotic-assisted surgical tools to the growing demand for neurological and emergency care across Rutherford County and Middle Tennessee. The conversation highlighted the more than 2,300 neurosurgery procedures performed over a 36-month period at Ascension Saint Thomas Rutherford, along with the more than 100,000 patients treated through the emergency departments at Saint Thomas Rutherford and Westlawn in Murfreesboro. Dr. Wright also talked about providing care not only in Murfreesboro, but in more rural Middle Tennessee communities through the partnership between Howell Allen Clinic and Ascension Saint Thomas.
