Dr. Gordon Tang, MD

Welcome to My Practice

I am a board certified, fellowship-trained neurosurgeon trusted with more than 6000 surgeries over the past 15 years in the East Bay. The medical community has voted me a "Top Doctor" every year since 2009. Using Medicare data, SurgeonRatings.org lists my practice as providing among the best outcomes in the Bay Area.

My practice is a personalized one focused on spinal care, benign brain tumors and hydrocephalus. Rather than nurses or trainees, I personally perform the initial history and every aspect of the surgery. My philosophy tends toward the smallest possible procedure. As such, more than a third of my elective cases do not require a hospital stay. I have operated alongside the same surgical team for over a decade at Alta Bates Hospital where I also currently serve as the Chairman of the Department of Surgery.
