Check to see if your county superior court has a website with access to at least listings of cases. On the website, you won't get specifics of the case so it will be more a matter of knowing how many suits have been filed. Usually, the local medical board will have info about malpractice suits settled or judged against a physician. Two caveats though: neurosurgery is a high risk profession and it is a rare neurosurgeon who has not had a suit filed against him/her; malpractice suits may be settled because of pressure from malpractice liability insurance attornies and not from any wrongdoing.
