How to Refer a Patient

The goal at Arizona Neurosurgery and Spine At The CORE Institute is to return our patients to as full function as surgery, treatment and rehabilitation will allow. For referring physicians, you can trust that we will provide precisely the level of care that you expect from your own practice, and that we will communicate clearly and consistently about your patient's status.

To make a referral, to inquire about the health insurance plans we accept, or to learn more about our specific neurosurgical services.

We have provided a Neurosurgical Consult Request Form in a pdf format for your convenience.
