Joseph Carnevale, MD

Dr. Carnevale joins the New Jersey Brain and Spine team following a seven-year residency at Weill Cornell Medicine, where he was twice recognized for his research on original, minimally invasive approaches to neurosurgery. 

As a resident at New York Presbyterian and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, Dr. Carnevale honed neurosurgical skills in cerebrovascular disorders, along with minimally invasive spine surgery, neuroendoscopy, and tumors of the brain and spine. He was then selected for the prestigious Endovascular Neurosurgical Fellowship at Weill Cornell – New York Presbyterian Hospital, where he specialized in minimally invasive techniques. 

Dr. Carnevale’s award-winning research focuses on identifying the most optimal minimally invasive alternative approach to neurosurgeries that typically rely on more invasive methods. His unique background grounded in both open neurological and minimally invasive techniques, enables him to offer patients the most tailored and thoughtful treatment plans based on their specific conditions, desired lifestyles, and care needs.

Doctor's Biography

Dr. Carnevale’s research interests have focused on a variety of neurosurgical areas, culminating in numerous publications, national conference presentations, and multiple ongoing clinical research projects. His clinical research efforts focus on intracranial aneurysms, carotid occlusive disease, middle meningeal artery embolization for non-acute subdural hematomas, carotid body tumor embolization and resection, venous sinus stenting for idiopathic intracranial hypertension and tinnitus, and intra-arterial chemotherapy for retinoblastoma and other neoplasms.
