About Payam Toobian
Payam Toobian is a well-known medical doctor and neurosurgery specialist in New York State. He has helped thousands of patients access life-saving medical tests and procedures throughout his career.
His work and research in spinal syringomyelia are particularly impressive, and he has helped develop new treatment options for the disorder. In his spare time, he volunteers for several local and state charities in New York and the Alpha Omega Alpha honor society.
Toobian's primary occupation is that of a neurosurgeon. While he is involved in his community and with various volunteer organizations, his patients' healthcare needs always come first. He still runs the same private practice he founded in 2000 and provides incredible continuity of care to patients with chronic healthcare needs.
His expertise in neurosurgery is in diagnosing and treating vascular malformations of the brain and spinal cord. Congenital abnormalities, also known as malformations, hurt the formation and function of the nervous system. For many patients, even seemingly minor changes can result in significant improvements in quality of life, making research in the field, such as that conducted by Dr. Payam Toobian, critical.
Toobian established his private practice as a neurological surgeon in 2000 and has kept it going for the past 22 years. Neurosurgery is a medical specialty that focuses on diagnosing and treating patients who have suffered brain injuries. These are traumatic injuries for some patients, but for others, they are the progression of a disease or disorder or the long-term management of a congenital problem that exists from birth.
Toobian believes in the utility of neuroradiology imaging for diagnosis and disease management and has conducted research in this area. Another area of study is the spinal cord, specifically syringomyelia.
Syringomyelia is a condition that only some people outside of the medical field are aware of once they or a family member is diagnosed. A fluid-filled cyst known as a syrinx form within the spinal cord due to syringomyelia. As a syrinx expands, it begins to compress and injure nerves and nerve fibers, eventually causing spinal cord damage. Treatment protocols range from observation to surgery, depending on the size of the cyst and the severity of the symptoms. Payam participated in well-known spinal cord research conducted solely to develop new treatment options for the condition.
Payam Toobian studied medicine at the State University of New York from 1990 to 1994, graduating with a medical degree. He worked at the Medical School Health Science Center in Brooklyn General Surgery and the Cornell Medical Center Neurosurgery.
He did neurological research at the New England Medical Center and a clerkship at the Downstate Medical Center. He's also a member of the United Latino Students Association.
While any healthcare professional should always provide compassionate care, the complexities of neurosurgery make providing conscientious and high-quality care even more critical. Dr. Toobian regards it as an honor to help his patients improve their quality of life and manage chronic conditions.
To do so effectively, he believes in efficient, kind communication about procedures and timely delivery of updates to the patient. Some patients with brain and spinal cord injuries can effectively communicate and process information, but others may require additional assistance throughout the process depending on the severity of their injury. When a full recovery is not possible due to a long-term loss of function, Toobian assists these patients in staying focused on recovery and condition management.
In his spare time, Dr. Payam Toobian focuses on the less fortunate and donates to charities formed in the greater New York metro area to improve the lives of widowed women and orphans. Toobian hopes to prevent a cycle of poverty for children by focusing on individuals who have lost their emotional and monetary support sources. She also hopes to ensure that children have access to high-quality education and the additional opportunities it provides.
Toobian previously worked at the Downstate Medical Center, where he was awarded the Downstate Surgical Research Award for his efforts. He is also a member of the medical honor society Alpha Omega Alpha. As members pledge to live a life of professionalism, leadership, scholarship, research, and community service, membership in society is both an honor and a commitment. Each medical school selects members, and nominations are limited to 20% of each graduating class, with a maximum of 25 nominees from students and fellows, ten from faculty, and three to five from alumni. Toobian joined the society in 1994, his senior year of high school.
