Dr. Bisson is a fellow of the American Board of Neurological Surgeons, and a member of the American Association of Neurological Surgeons, Spine Section. Dr. Bisson has published over 100 peer-reviewed articles and serves as principal investigator on several national and international multicenter trials. She continues to work collaboratively on research with faculty in Neuroradiology and Exercise and Sports Medicine at the University of Utah as well as Neurosurgery Spine faculty at the Medical College of Wisconsin. Additionally, she serves many roles nationally for neurosurgery, including being a member of the Editorial Board for the Journal of Neurosurgery and serving as the Scientific Program Chair for the AANS/CNS Joint Section on Spine and Peripheral Nerves.
In addition to early career leadership opportunities, including being selected to participate in the 2012 AAMC Early Career Women Faculty Professional Development Seminar, Dr. Bisson has been elected by UUMG to participate in both the University of Utah and the Intermountain Healthcare Leadership courses. Most recently, Dr. Bisson was also elected to serve a 2 year term as the President of the University of Utah Medical Board.
Dr. Erica Bisson specializes in complex spine surgery with a focus on cervical disease (neck pain) , utilizing both novel artificial disc and fusion technology. She also treats patients with spinal cord injury, spine trauma, and degenerative spinal conditions (neck and back pain). Dr. Bisson’s professional interests include occipitocervical disease, cervical degenerative disorders, advanced spinal fusion techniques, and image-guided surgery.
