Biography
Brandon P. Hirsch, MD is a fellowship-trained orthopedic spine surgeon. His clinical interests include the minimally invasive treatment of complex degenerative disorders of the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine.
Dr. Hirsch completed two year-long fellowship programs in orthopedic spine surgery under world-renowned spine surgeons at Rush University Medical Center and the New York University Hospital for Joint Diseases. While at NYU he was trained in complex spinal reconstruction and caring for patients with disabling spinal deformities, many of whom had a history of multiple spine procedures. During his time at Rush University Medical Center, he was fortunate to train at the Minimally Invasive Spine Institute where he learned the latest minimally invasive techniques.
Prior to his fellowship training, Dr. Hirsch completed his residency in orthopedic surgery at both, Jackson Memorial Hospital and the University of Miami Health System. Dr. Hirsch earned his doctoral degree from Yale University – School of Medicine where he graduated with the Farr Scholar Award for Excellence in Research. He obtained his undergraduate degree from Emory University, graduating summa cum laude.
Dr. Hirsch has published multiple peer-reviewed original articles on a variety of topics including spinal alignment, spondylolisthesis, and ambulatory spine surgery. He has authored three book chapters and remains active in orthopedic spine surgery research. He is a member of the North American Spine Society and the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons.
Dr. Hirsch believes strongly in the patient-centered model of healthcare. He feels patients do best when they are well informed about their spine condition and all options available for treatment. While surgery is not required for the majority of spine conditions, when it is necessary, Dr. Hirsch utilizes the least invasive surgical techniques available to get patients back on the road to recovery as quickly as possible. As a result, many of Dr. Hirsch’s patients can return to the comfort of their home on the day of surgery.

Patient Satisfaction Reviews
The CORE Institute is focused on providing an exceptional patient care experience. To ensure that we are holding ourselves to the highest standards, we measure all aspects of patient satisfaction with Rater8, an independent patient satisfaction company. This service partnership provides the technology to display ratings on our physician profile pages, and all ratings are verified and submitted by actual patients.
Responses are measured on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the best score. These reviews have been submitted by patients as a reflection of their views and opinions. The resulting ratings are not directly endorsed by and do not necessarily reflect the views of The CORE Institute.
