About

Ashesh Mehta

Ashesh D. Mehta, MD, PhD, is director of neurosurgery at Glen Cove Hospital and director of epilepsy surgery at North Shore University Hospital. He is also the director of the Laboratory of Human Brain Mapping at the Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research and has 15 years of experience as a practicing neurosurgeon.Dr. Mehta attended New York University Medical Center for his fellowship in epilepsy surgery and New York Presbyterian Hospital for his residency in neurosurgery. He came to Northwell Health in 2006 with a focus on epilepsy surgery, functional brain mapping, brain and spine tumors and trauma, and degenerative spine disease. He also specializes in radiosurgery, as well as functional neurosurgery and neuromodulation.Along with his peers at the Feinstein Institutes, Dr. Mehta is at the forefront of new innovations in minimally invasive neurosurgical techniques. He has authored numerous articles for medical journals and book chapters in neurosurgery, neurophysiology and epilepsy, and has been featured on national television as an expert in a variety of neuroscience topics. He has also presented his research and clinical findings at international meetings, and has received National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding to perform brain research at Northwell Health toward the development of innovative therapies for the treatment of neurological disease. He has repeatedly been recognized as one of Castle Connolly's "Top Doctors".Dr. Mehta's research is focused on advancing minimally invasive neurosurgical techniques to improve precision and reduce recovery time, which he finds to be the most rewarding aspect of his career, because it helps people get back to their normal lives as quickly, efficiently and painlessly as possible. His work in clinical trials includes Stereotactic Laser Ablation for Temporal Lobe Epilepsy (SLATE), which was designed to further expand the use of Medtronic's Visualase MRI-Guided Laser Ablation System. As an assistant professor of neurosurgery at the Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell, Dr. Mehta instructs future neurosurgeons in these new techniques.
