NSPC Brain and Spine Surgery (NSPC), a long-time insured of EmPRO Insurance Company (EmPRO) has been selected by its peers as the top neurosurgical practice in New York State and one of the top 5 neurosurgery practices nationally, as reported by Castle Connolly, the leading healthcare research and information service in the U.S. The Rockville Centre, NY-based practice is Long Island’s largest independent neurosurgical group, with seven offices across Long Island and Manhattan. This recognition underscores NSPC’s commitment to prioritizing patient care and delivering world-class surgical expertise. The entire EmPRO team congratulates NSPC and their outstanding contributions to the field of neurosurgery.

“NSPC’s commitment to delivering thoughtful, top-tier medical care and their dedication to patient well-being have earned them this prestigious ranking, and we are very proud of our continued partnership,” said Brian Nolan, EmPRO’s Chief Operating Officer.

NSPC is led by CEO Michael H. Brisman M.D., F.A.C.S., who recently authored a neurosurgical textbook, titled “Put Down the Knife: A Fresh Look at Adult Brain Surgery.”

Dr. Brisman’s text discusses the need for a conservative approach to adult brain surgery and less invasive alternatives for various brain conditions. Dr. Brisman’s careful methodology plays a crucial role in how NSPC mitigates malpractice risks by prioritizing patient safety and minimizing unnecessary interventions.

“I wrote the book to provide fellow physicians with an alternative lens through which to view neurosurgical procedures, encouraging my colleagues to rethink conventional methods and embrace innovative approaches for improved patient care,” said Dr. Brisman.

“Guided by the exceptional leadership of Dr. Brisman and supported by his outstanding team of healthcare professionals, NSPC has cemented its position as a true leader in its specialties and in New York healthcare,” added Nolan.

EmPRO takes great pride in recognizing and celebrating our insureds who consistently demonstrate exceptional dedication and commitment to ensuring the safety and well-being of their patients. Being acknowledged by industry peers is a significant honor and we extend our best wishes to NSPC and Dr. Brisman’s team for their continued success and dedication to advancing innovative medical solutions.
