John E. Wanebo, MD, FACS, FAANS
Cranial Neurosurgery
- (480) 425-8004
- Fax: (602) 294-8263
John Wanebo, MD, has refined his skills since he graduated from the University of Virginia School of Medicine in Charlottesville, Virginia, in 1991 by serving in both academic and military treatment centers. Although he first planned to become a pilot upon graduation from the U.S. Naval Academy, exposure to his father’s work in surgical oncology influenced him to pursue medicine.
Before joining Barrow Neurological Institute at Dignity Health St. Joseph’s Hospital and Medical Center in Phoenix, Dr. Wanebo cared for complex cranial and spinal injuries sustained by U.S. troops during regional conflicts of the past decade. He currently specializes in cerebrovascular disorders, neurotrauma, and brain tumors and has published extensively on these subjects.
More recently, Dr. Wanebo has focused his academic efforts on studying moyamoya disease through clinical and laboratory research. He has published over 30 articles and seven book chapters, and he is the lead editor of a forthcoming moyamoya textbook.
Please call (480) 425-8004 to request an appointment with Dr. Wanebo.
