St. Bernards Healthcare announced the arrival of cerebrovascular neurosurgeon Nicolas “Nick” Khattar, M.D., who joins the growing team of expert neurosurgeons practicing at St. Bernards Medical Center.

Khattar arrives at St. Bernards after completing a cerebrovascular fellowship at the Semmes-Murpey Clinic in Memphis. He brings several new surgical options to St. Bernards, including the ability to remove clots from blood vessels in the brain, a procedure known as a mechanical thrombectomy. This intervention treats strokes by restoring blood flow and minimizing damage to the brain. Khattar also completed a complex spine fellowship, after his residency at the University of Louisville. kAmz92EE2C :D 2 H6==\AF3=:D965 C6D62C496C[ 2?5 9@=5D >6>36CD9:AD H:E9 ?F>6C@FD AC6DE:8:@FD AC@76DD:@?2= @C
