Founded by Dr. Andrea Douglas,
board-certified neurosurgeon
A physician-led care model founded by neurosurgeon Dr. Andrea Douglas to help individuals and families navigate complex neurological decisions with confidence.
Whether you are seeking expert guidance before a major decision or ongoing neurosurgical care, Compass Neuro offers a clear and thoughtful path forward.
Expert-led • Human-centered • Designed for moments that matter.
Dr. Andrea Douglas is a board-certified neurosurgeon with
deep experience caring for patients with complex spine and
neurological conditions.
Throughout her career, she has seen how overwhelming these
moments can become—for patients, for families, and for those trying
to make sound decisions under pressure.
Compass Neuro was created to offer something different: a model of care
grounded in expertise, thoughtful pacing, and genuine partnership.
Experience matters when decisions are complex
Neurosurgical Expertise
Decades of clinical experience diagnosing and treating complex neurological and spine conditions.
Clear Decision Support
Thoughtful interpretation of imaging, records, and recommendations so patients can move forward with greater confidence.
Continuity When It Matters
A care model designed to support patients from early guidance through direct neurosurgical care when appropriate.
Two pathways. One philosophy of care.
Compass Neuro is designed to meet people where they are—whether they are still making sense of a diagnosis or require ongoing neurosurgical care with continuity and accountability.
We offer two distinct but connected pathways:
Compass Neuro Navigation
Expert guidance before major decisions are made
Compass Neuro Navigation helps individuals and families understand complex diagnoses, evaluate treatment options, prepare for important appointments, and move forward with greater clarity.
This pathway is especially valuable when there is uncertainty, conflicting recommendations, or the need for calm, strategic support before committing to a plan.
Compass NeuroSpine
Direct neurosurgical care when clinical responsibility is required
Compass NeuroSpine provides individualized, longitudinal neurosurgical care for patients who need evaluation, treatment planning, follow-up, and a consistent neurosurgical partner over time.
This pathway is designed for moments when guidance must transition into direct care.

We serve people who value clarity as much as care.
If you are navigating one of these moments, Compass Neuro is here to help.
