SAMUEL CIRICILLO, M.D.

<p>Samuel F. Ciricillo Jr., MD, FACS is a board-certified neurological surgeon practicing at Sutter Medical Foundation in Sacramento, California. His National Provider Identifier (1841305554) is confirmed under the taxonomy &apos;Neurological Surgery&apos; in the CMS NPPES registry, and he holds dual board certifications from the American Board of Neurological Surgery and the American Board of Pediatric Neurological Surgery — credentials documented on the Shriners Children&apos;s Northern California provider roster. Dr. Ciricillo&apos;s practice spans adult and pediatric neurosurgical conditions across multiple affiliated Sacramento-area hospital campuses.</p><p>He earned his medical degree summa cum laude from Emory University School of Medicine in 1986, then completed a general surgery internship, a neurosurgery residency, and a pediatric neurosurgery fellowship — all at the University of California, San Francisco, finishing in 1993. That concentrated UCSF training sequence prepared him for subspecialty work in both complex adult intracranial surgery and the full breadth of pediatric neurological conditions.</p><p>Clinical focus areas listed across the Sutter Health provider directory and the Shriners Children&apos;s Northern California provider page include hydrocephalus, craniosynostosis, craniofacial reconstruction, spina bifida, brain tumors, cerebral aneurysms, vascular malformations, epilepsy, and endoscopic neurosurgery. Dr. Ciricillo is also among a relatively small group of practitioners offering microvascular decompression surgery and Gamma Knife stereotactic radiosurgery for trigeminal neuralgia, a facial-pain condition that frequently presents after non-surgical management proves insufficient.</p><p>For personal-injury practitioners, the practice&apos;s documented scope is directly relevant: the Sutter Health and Shriners provider listings confirm evaluation and surgical management of traumatic brain injury and spinal cord pathology — conditions that arise regularly in motor-vehicle and premises-liability matters. Dr. Ciricillo serves as Medical Director of Adult and Pediatric Neurological Surgery at Sutter Medical Center, Sacramento, and as an attending surgeon at Shriners Children&apos;s Northern California, providing institutional depth to neurosurgical consultations and record documentation that attorneys often rely upon in litigation.</p><p>He holds Fellowship status in the American College of Surgeons (FACS, since 2015) and is an active member of the American Association of Neurological Surgeons, the Congress of Neurological Surgeons, and the American Society of Pediatric Neurosurgeons. The practice office is located at 2800 L Street, Suite 500, Sacramento, CA 95816, reachable at (916) 454-6850. Consultations are conducted in English. As with all surgical specialties, individual clinical outcomes vary and prior results do not guarantee future outcomes.</p>
