Ivo W. Tremont-Lukats, M.D. Director, Neuro-Oncology — AdventHealth Medical Group, Orlando, FL PERSONAL STATEMENT My practice centers on evidence-based patient care in adult neurology, with a particular focus on neuro-oncology. My clinical work covers the full range of brain and spinal tumors — including gliomas, glioblastoma, brain metastases, and neurofibromatosis — as well as the neurological complications of cancer therapy. My broader neurology experience includes dementia and cognitive impairment, stroke, headache disorders, epilepsy, traumatic brain injury, autoimmune CNS diseases such as multiple sclerosis, and post-COVID neurological sequelae. I bring this perspective to case review involving diagnosis, causation, and standard of care.
