Biography

Dr. Thomas J. Wilson was born in Omaha, Nebraska. He attended the University of Nebraska College of Medicine, earning his MD with highest distinction. While a medical student, he was awarded a Howard Hughes Medical Institute Research Training Fellowship and spent a year in the lab of Dr. Rakesh Singh at the University of Nebraska. He was also elected to the prestigious Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Medical Society. He completed his residency training in neurological surgery at the University of Michigan and was mentored by Dr. Lynda Yang and Dr. John McGillicuddy in peripheral nerve surgery. Following his residency, he completed a fellowship in peripheral nerve surgery at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, working with Dr. Robert Spinner. He is now Clinical Associate Professor and Co-Director of the Center for Peripheral Nerve Surgery at Stanford University. He also holds a Master of Public Health (MPH) degree from the Bloomberg School of Public Health at Johns Hopkins University, with focused certificates in Clinical Trials and Health Finance and Management. His research interests include peripheral nerve outcomes research, clinical trials advancing options for patients with peripheral nerve pathologies and spinal cord injuries, and translational research focused on improved imaging techniques to assist in diagnosing nerve pain and other peripheral nerve conditions. His clinical practice encompasses the treatment of all peripheral nerve pathologies, including entrapment neuropathies, nerve tumors, nerve injuries (including brachial plexus injuries, upper and lower extremity nerve injuries), and nerve pain. Dr. Wilson enjoys working in multi-disciplinary teams to solve complex problems of the peripheral nervous system. His wife, Dr. Monique Wilson, is a practicing dermatologist in the Bay Area.

Dr. Wilson is a very knowledgeable , very thorough and a compassionate neurosurgeon ! He is a great listener and keeps patient involved and well informed of the plan of care. He outweighs the risks and benefits of a surgical intervention very carefully rather than pushing surgeries. He closely monitors the progress of a patientâ€™s recovery so timely surgical intervention can be done if needed to avoid any complications and improve function . I highly recommend him !

Please refer to comments on the previous page. The surgery and recovery went just as he had explained; an explanation that was clear and thorough. In preparation and follow-up visits he listened to me and took ample time to answer all of my questions. Dr. Wilson made sure I understood each aspect, defined the problem, the corrective surgery, the risks and recovery process but kept it on a level that made me feel he respected my intelligence. His nurse was also particularly helpful answering my questions in the week immediately following the surgery. In hindsight, I am so pleased I sought out Dr. Wilson for this specialized surgery. He came highly recommended by peers and I am grateful I was able to access his expertise and skill.

He tells you all the risks that could happen during the surgery and helps you in understanding the benefits versus the risk so you can make an informed decision.
