  • Dr. Rajiv Iyer is an Assistant Professor of Neurosurgery and a dual fellowship-trained pediatric neurosurgeon with a special focus on pediatric spinal disorders and spasticity. After completing a residency and chief residency in neurological surgery at The Johns Hopkins Hospital, Dr. Iyer completed a pediatric neurosurgery fellowship at University of Utah/Primary Children’s Hospital. He then went on to complete the prestigious Advanced Pediatric Spinal Deformity Fellowship within the Department of Orthopedic Surgery at Columbia University Medical Center in New York with Dr. Michael Vitale and Dr. Lawrence Lenke.

    Dr. Iyer is one of only a few pediatric spine surgeons in the nation with extensive training in both the neurosurgical and orthopedic aspects of spinal deformity care in children. Conditions he treats include idiopathic scoliosis, early onset scoliosis, congenital scoliosis, neuromuscular scoliosis, and kyphosis. Other spinal disorders that he treats include craniocervical disorders, traumatic spinal disorders, tumors of the spinal column and spinal cord, spondylolisthesis, disc herniations, and others. Dr. Iyer also offers the latest surgical solutions in spine care, including anterior vertebral body tethering (AVBT) for scoliosis, as well as spinal column shortening for recurrent tethered cord syndrome. He is involved in several national research initiatives to better understand and improve the treatment of pediatric spinal conditions and to enhance the safety of complex spinal surgery in children. In addition to spinal disorders, Dr. Iyer also treats all general pediatric neurosurgical conditions, including hydrocephalus, brain tumors, tethered spinal cord, vascular disorders, congenital anomalies of the nervous system, spina bifida and others.
