Frye Regional Medical Center is pleased to welcome Paul Boone, MD, a board-certified neurosurgeon with fellowship training in reconstructive spinal surgery, to its medical staff.

Dr. Boone brings more than two decades of experience in advanced brain and spine care, including leadership roles at top academic and community medical centers across the country. His clinical expertise spans the treatment of complex neurological and spinal conditions, including subdural and epidural hematomas, intracerebral hemorrhage, brain tumors, hydrocephalus, cervical and lumbar disc herniations, spinal stenosis and carpal tunnel syndrome.

Building on this expertise, he also performs minimally invasive and robotic-assisted surgery. The robot allows precision placement of a surgical implant. This approach can reduce pain and scarring for the patient, promoting faster recovery. Dr. Boone provides neurosurgical care for adolescents, adults and geriatric patients.

A native of Marion, North Carolina, Dr. Boone earned his medical degree with distinction from the University of Nebraska in Omaha, Nebraska, followed by a neurosurgical residency and surgical internship at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee. He completed fellowship training in reconstructive spinal surgery at the University of Florida in Gainesville, Florida.

Over the course of his career, Dr. Boone has served in prominent academic and leadership roles, including clinical associate professor in the Department of Neurosurgery at the University of Texas Southwestern in Dallas, Texas, chief of neurosurgery at Texas Health Dallas in Dallas, Texas, and medical director of neurosurgery for CommonSpirit-Penrose Hospital in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

“I am honored to join Frye Regional Medical Center and serve the Hickory community,” said Dr. Boone. “My goal is to deliver personalized, high-quality care using the latest techniques in neurosurgery and spine surgery, helping patients regain function and improve quality of life.”

Dr. Boone is now accepting new patients at FryeCare Orthopedics and Neurosurgery, located at 1771 Tate Blvd. SE, Suite 101, Hickory. Same-week appointments are available. To schedule, call 828.304.2527 or visit FryeMedCtr.com/find-a-doctor.
