Southwest Neurosurgical Associates, led by Dr. Andrew K. Metzger, was a highly respected private practice of neurological surgery in Albuquerque, New Mexico for over 20 years. Dr. Metzger was renowned for his expertise in spine surgery, Gamma Knife radiosurgery, and deep brain stimulation surgery for Parkinson's Disease and essential tremor. With numerous accolades, including being voted "Top Doc" in Neurosurgery multiple times, Dr. Metzger provided exceptional care to the community until the practice permanently closed in 2023.
Dr. Metzger has since relocated to Arizona and joined Barrow Brain and Spine, primarily based at Mercy Gilbert Medical Center. Patients seeking his services in Gilbert can contact the new practice directly. It is important to note that not all health insurances in New Mexico are contracted with Barrow Brain and Spine, and patients are advised to check their coverage. Medical records are now stored at Iron Mountain, although the most crucial information is accessible through the Epic electronic medical record system used by Presbyterian and Lovelace. Additionally, most radiology studies are archived electronically by the imaging centers, reducing the need for physical copies.
