Dr. Kevin T. Huang is an attending neurosurgeon at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and an Assistant Professor of Neurosurgery at Harvard Medical School. He earned his undergraduate degree at Harvard and his medical degree at Duke. Afterwards, he completed his residency at Brigham and Women’s Hospital / Harvard Medical School, followed by a fellowship in complex spine surgery at the Cleveland Clinic. He specializes in complex spine surgery, including minimally invasive techniques and the treatment of spinal deformity.
Dr. Huang became a neurosurgeon and spine surgeon because he was inspired by the field’s ability to restore function and quality of life to patients in pain and disability. His goal is to provide every patient with professional and personalized care. He believes that the decision to undergo spine surgery is a complex one that requires taking into context a person’s broader life goals and aspirations. He believes that although spine surgery is not necessarily for everyone, in the right circumstances it can make a dramatic difference in people’s lives.
His academic interest is on improving neurosurgical outcomes, particularly in leveraging machine learning and artificial intelligence to offer new insights into clinical decision making. He is also actively involved in neurosurgical resident training.
