Default Neurosurgeon in Chicago?

I am posting for a young (early 30's) woman with severe cervical problems.
Does anyone know a neurosurgeon in Chicago that you would recommend?
Thanks.

Default neurosurgeon in chicago..

I saw a neurosurgeon in Chicago by the name of Dr. Fessler. He was one of the first doctors to use minimally invasive techniques. He would also be worth a shot.

My neurosurgeon, Dr. Andrew Chenelle, is great. He's in Winfield, though, with Central DuPage Hospital.
