Hi, I'm Dr. Paul Grabb, pediatric neurosurgeon. As a pediatric neurosurgeon, I take care of a wide breadth of diseases and problems in children.
What I'm most passionate about in pediatric neurosurgery and caring for these children is the outcome that we affect. At the end of the day, I want to know that we gave this child, this family the best possible outcome for whatever particular disease process that they are struggling with.
We deal with a lot of "rare problems". The families can rest assured that they have someone with the technical expertise to do something if something needs to be done and above all to explain what's going on with their child and relieve that anxiety because anxiety is such a stressor for families and such a stressor for older children as well, because no one wants to go through this. But if you have to go through a process of having an operation or a hospitalization, then you're going to not only want that expertise, but you're going to also want the child's comfort and anxiety to be addressed as best as possible. And that's something the University of Virginia Children's Hospital does provide.
