It finally happens this summer: UNC Health Care’s hospital in Hillsborough opens its doors for patients. While medical services have been available on the campus for the last year, the grand opening celebration and open house for the hospital facility proper are just two short weeks away.
In February, UNC neurologist Hae Won Shin, MD, and neurosurgeon Eldad Hadar, MD, were the first in the state to implant the NeuroPace RNS System following the medical device’s recent FDA approval. In clinical trials, the NeuroPace system greatly reduced the number of seizures experienced by patients with severe epilepsy.
For months, preparations have been underway at UNC Hospitals and our clinics in case a patient presents with symptoms and a travel history consistent with Ebola Virus Disease.
