Joseph Carnevale
MD

Dr. Carnevale joined the New Jersey Brain and Spine team following a seven-year residency at New York Presbyterian-Weill Cornell Medicine and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York City, where he was recognized for his distinguished neurosurgical care of his patients as well as his  research on original, minimally invasive approaches to neurosurgery.

Doctor's Biography

At New York Presbyterian and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, Dr. Carnevale mastered neurosurgical skills in cerebrovascular disorders, along with minimally invasive brain surgery, 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 focused on cerebral aneurysms, Arteriovenous Malformations (AVMs), carotid-occlusive disease, and various other cerebrovascular pathologies.

Dr. Carnevale’s award-winning research focuses on identifying the most optimal minimally invasive alternative approach to neurosurgeries that typically rely on more invasive surgical 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.
