Advanced Brain Tumor Care, Close to Home
When facing a brain tumor diagnosis, patients want two things: the most advanced care possible and a team they can trust. At Marcus Neuroscience Institute at Boca Raton Regional Hospital, patients can find both.
Surabhi Ranjan, M.D.
The Brain Tumor Program at Marcus Neuroscience Institute is designed to bring highly specialized care together under one roof. Patients benefit from a multidisciplinary team that includes neurosurgeons, neuro-oncologists, radiation specialists, imaging experts, rehabilitation professionals and navigators who work closely together to develop individualized treatment plans. That level of coordination can make a meaningful difference for patients and families during an already stressful time.
Marcus Neuroscience Institute offers many of the advanced technologies and treatment approaches patients may otherwise expect only at major academic centers. These include minimally invasive brain tumor surgery, laser ablation, fluorescence-guided surgery to better identify tumor tissue, awake brain mapping, intraoperative MRI and advanced imaging tools that help surgeons operate with greater precision while protecting healthy areas of the brain.
Warren Selman, M.D.
The program has also expanded with the addition of Surabhi Ranjan, M.D., a dual board-certified neuro-oncologist at the Eugene M. & Christine E. Lynn Cancer Institute, part of Baptist Health, at Boca Raton Regional Hospital. Together with Warren Selman, M.D., neurosurgeon and chief medical executive of Marcus Neuroscience Institute and the team, she helps provide comprehensive care that looks beyond surgery alone, connecting patients with medical therapies, supportive care and access to the latest clinical trial opportunities when appropriate.
Another major milestone is the Eugene M. & Christine E. Lynn Cancer Institute’s proton center, which broadens access to a highly targeted form of radiation therapy. For some patients, proton therapy may offer a more personalized treatment option that helps spare surrounding healthy tissue.
Marcus Neuroscience Institute is committed to timely access. Patients with urgent brain tumor concerns can often be seen within 24 hours, helping them move quickly from uncertainty to expert evaluation and care.
For South Florida patients and families, that means advanced brain tumor treatment, multidisciplinary expertise and compassionate support — all close to home.
