(Greensburg, IN) – Decatur County Memorial Hospital (DCMH) is excited to announce the addition of a Neurosurgery Clinic to the DCMH campus, a new specialty service, bringing advanced, world-class care for complex brain, spine, and nervous system conditions to the community.
Through DCMH’s partnership with Goodman Campbell Brain and Spine, DCMH is now the only healthcare network within a 40-mile radius to offer these services. This expansion provides patients exceptional care closer to home through evaluation, treatment planning, and post-operative follow-up for patients with brain and spine conditions.
Goodman Campbell Brain and Spine’s neurosurgeons specialize in diagnosing and treating a wide range of conditions, from brain tumors and traumatic injuries to chronic back pain and degenerative spinal disease. Their expertise spans routine cases to the most complex neurological issues, prioritizing the best outcomes for
patients.
“Our partnership with Goodman Campbell Brain and Spine enables us to offer access to leading neurosurgical care here in our community,” said Rex McKinney, President/CEO of DCMH. “Patients no longer need to travel far for the care they need— they can find exceptional care locally.”
Conditions Treated by Goodman Campbell Brain and Spine Specialists Include:
• Back and neck pain – especially if severe or worsening
• Degenerative spinal disease – caused by the natural aging process
• Complex spine disorders – including scoliosis and multi-level disc degeneration
• Spinal tumors – leading to pain, numbness, or neurological deficits
• Traumatic brain and spine injuries – requiring urgent, expert attention
• Brain tumors – persistent headaches, seizures, or vision changes
• Brain aneurysms – severe headaches or ruptures requiring immediate care
Goodman Campbell Brain and Spine’s multidisciplinary approach ensures patients receive comprehensive care. While neurologists often address conditions like migraines or multiple sclerosis through non-surgical treatments, neurosurgeons step in when surgical intervention may be needed. The Goodman Campbell Brain and Spine specialists work closely with other providers on the DCMH campus to explore all treatment options, reserving surgery for when it’s the most effective choice.
“Goodman Campbell Brain and Spine continues to grow into communities throughout Indiana. We are thrilled to expand our services to Decatur County,” said Derek Cantrell, Goodman Campbell Brain and Spine CEO. “We have partnered with our referral community for 52 years to provide expert spine and cranial care. Our subspecialized clinical teams thrive on the daily interaction with patients to care for the most common neck, back, and brain conditions. Our comprehensive approach includes internal cross referral to the appropriate provider, clinical conferences for the more complex cases, committed resources to collect patient-reported outcome data, and publication of data in peer-reviewed media.”
If surgery is required, Goodman Campbell Brain and Spine’s team coordinates procedures at partner hospitals, such as Franciscan Health, or surgery centers, ensuring seamless care. With more top-rated doctors than any other neurosurgical practice in Indiana*, Goodman Campbell Brain and Spine brings nationally recognized expertise to the community.
