New Jersey Brain and Spine | New Jersey Brain and Spine Earns #3 National Ranking For Neurosurgical PracticesDr. Azmi is a board-certified neurosurgeon who is fellowship-trained in functional and restorative neurosurgery. His main areas of interest are the surgical treatment of Parkinson’s disease and other movement disorders, facial pain syndromes such as trigeminal neuralgia, chronic and malignant pain syndromes, peripheral nerve disorders, and minimally invasive and image-guided treatment of neurological disorders.

The author of book chapters and peer-reviewed articles in scientific journals, he has been invited to speak both nationally and internationally and has served on national committees of the Congress of Neurological Surgeons. He is an advocate for new technology that improves patient care, and he played a key role in bringing MRI-guided surgeries to Parkinson’s patients at Hackensack University Medical Center, making it one of the first hospitals in the country to offer this approach.
