UC San Diego Neurosurgery

Each week, UCSD Neurosurgery meets for 'grand rounds', an opportunity for continuing medical education. This week we were fortunate to have Dr. Richard Ostrup, noted neurosurgeon in the San Diego community. Dr. David Barba (left) and Dr. Ostrup (right) were the first two neurosurgical residents trained in the UCSD neurosurgery residency program. We are very proud of our graduates and their longstanding contributions to the San Diego community!
