Neurosurgeon Chima Ohaegbulam, MD, succeeds Dr. Tromanhauser, who held the role since 2014.
Since 2005, Dr. Ohaegbulam has been on the hospital’s faculty. He specializes in minimally invasive surgery, motion-preserving techniques and robotic spine surgery, among other areas of spine.
“I’m honored to take on this new role guiding our exceptional spine surgery team as we build upon [New England Baptist’s] already outstanding reputation for orthopedic surgery,” Dr. Ohaegbulam said.
The surgeon graduated medical school in Nigeria before moving to the U.S., where he completed a residency and spine fellowship at Boston Children’s Hospital and Brigham and Women’s Hospital.
