Experience

Dr. Dustin Hayward is an expert in cerebrovascular, endovascular, and brain tumor surgery. He's been practicing since 2016 and treats several disorders with open and minimally invasive techniques, including cerebral aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations, dural arteriovenous fistulas, subarachnoid hemorrhages, stroke; neurosurgical oncology including all varieties of brain tumors; spinal disorders such as spinal stenosis and spinal instability; and general neurosurgical conditions.
He is post-residency fellowship trained in cerebrovascular and endovascular neurosurgery.

Philosophy of Care

My philosophy of care is straightforward: you and I are a team. We make all decisions together because we want the same things. Surgery is not the answer for everyone, but when surgery is the right decision, I consider it my duty to perform a technically excellent service for my patient.

I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Hayward. I saw him for a second opinion on a neurological Issue. When we met with him it was clear he had done a thorough job looking through my records and could speak accurately on my exact situation. He spent much more time than I ever expected talking through treatment options and thoroughly answered all our questions. He was kind, caring, but honest. I moved my care to Evergreen hospital because of Dr. Hayward and the wonderful staff that made the experience as easy and low stress as possible.
