On July 15, 2006, Dr. Jonathan White will give us an overview on different types of aneurysms, why and how they occur, what their symptoms are, and what groups of people are prone to suffering from aneurysms.

He works for the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas as an assistant professor of neurosurgery where he also completed his residency training.

Dr. White performs over 150 blood vessel operations a year. UT Southwestern Medical Center treats over 400 aneurysms a year via open surgery and endovascular techniques. A multidisciplinary approached is used and each case is reviewed by a panel of neurologists, radiologists and neurosurgeons. For more information, you may call Dr. White’s office at (214) 648-8500
