Vice-Chair of Neurosurgery
Brigham and Woman's Hospital
Boston, Massachusetts
Michael W. Groff, M.D. is the Vice-Chairman and Director of Spinal Neurosurgery at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital. He earned his MD at the University of Pittsburgh and then went on to the Mount Sinai Hospital in New York for internship and residency training in Neurological Surgery. He completed his training at the Medical College of Wisconsin with a fellowship in Spinal Surgery.
Dr. Groff is actively involved in national neurosurgical societies. He is a past-Chairman of the AANS/CNS Joint Section of the Spine and Peripheral nerves, the national neurosurgical spine organization. He is also active in the American Association of Neurological Surgeons (AANS) and serves as the Chairman of the Neurosurgery Research and Education Foundation (NREF).
He has served on the Editorial board for the Journal of Neurosurgery: Spine, as well as Neurosurgery, World Neurosurgery, and Clinical Neurology and Neurosurgery.
Dr. Groff’s research interests have focused on spinal biomechanics, health services research, and evidence-based medicine. The common thread has been trying to improve the clinical outcome of individual patients and in particular help determine which patients benefit from surgery or fusion. His clinical focus has been on Complex Cervical Spine surgery, Spinal Oncology, intradural spinal cord tumors, and minimally invasive surgery. He was awarded board certification in 2005 and was first selected as one of the Best Doctors in America in 2007.
Dr. Groff is committed to ensuring that every patient receives personalized care that is responsive to their goals and concerns. At Brigham Health we recognize that the vast armamentarium of a world-class tertiary care medical center can deliver miracles, even so we believe that the one-to-one relationship of a patient and their caregiver is the most important aspect of the care we provide.
