Daniel Sciubba, MD

Daniel Sciubba, MD, serves as the senior vice president of neurosurgery at Northwell Health, chair of neurosurgery at North Shore University Hospital and Long Island Jewish Medical Center, Co-Director of the Institute for Neurology and Neurosurgery at Northwell Health and Chair of Neurosciences at the Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell.

A national leader in neurosurgery, Dr. Sciubba has made spine surgery a particular area of focus, with special emphasis on spine tumors and spinal deformity, including scoliosis, kyphosis and spondylolisthesis. With an approach that is as minimally invasive as possible but as far-reaching as necessary, he is recognized for his work in complex en bloc surgery, in which a tumor is removed in its entirety in order to reduce the risk of cancer spread, including in cases where the tumor is wrapped around or otherwise involved in another organ or tissue, such as the spinal cord or aorta.
