James Mcinerney

DON'T GO TO HIM. My sister underwent DBS in July 2021. She had to undergo 6 additional surgeries to either remove part or all of the DBS. She was hospitalized twice for IV antibiotics due to bacteria on the equipment. As long as you have good insurance, they will operate til you die or you are so severely disabled that they don't care. You are nothing but an experiment.

saw him about 3 years ago for a tumor on a nerve on the brain and he was more interested in talking to his interns at the appointment then to listening to me,---teaching , not caring

Received Gamma Knife surgery from Dr. McInerney, for Trigeminal Neuralgia. Said it was “Gold Standard “. Issues@procedure, anesthetic didn’t work. Felt him drill 4 screws into my head, gave no options for relief. Least of problems. Less than 6 months later, 1/2 my face was paralyzed, drooping, numb & painful, as if I had a stroke. Totally stopped my life as I knew it. Dr. McInerney claimed doubtful b/c of procedure. Never happened to him prior. Offered no solutions nor help. Assoc. in same Dept. confirmed, absolutely from procedure, & irreversible. Third opinion, @ University of Pennsylvania Hosp. (HUP), Chair of Dept., respected NeuroSurgeon, knew Dr. McInerney, also confirmed it was 100% due to Gamma Knife, & irreversible. JHU, confirmed same. A decade later, have tried every possibility to assist in relief & getting life back, to no avail. Dr. McInerney needed to own what occurred & try to help. Instead he walked away. Offering nothing. HUGE EGO! Disgrace! Pathetic!

Removed a tumor from my C7 spinal cord, located inside the cord attached to nerves going to my arms, legs, and heart, as well as other areas. He saved my life and mobility when every other surgeon turned me away because it was too risky. He gave me a second chance at life. I thank God for him daily. God Bless you Dr. James Mcinerney.

Arrogant and dangerous

Love this surgeon and his whole staff. Had DBS inserted in 10/18. Had continuing problems with bacteria infections. They worked tirelessly to control it and were so kind to me. They finally decided it was on the hardware and removed it in 4/2019. Sad because it worked wonderfully. I’m going to have it replaced soon and I have complete faith in Dr. Mcinerney and the staff at Penn State Hershey Medical. A big thank you to my awesome neurologist Dr. Xumei Husng who referred me and has been there for me the last 8 years. Love this surgeon and his whole staff. Had DBS inserted in 10/18.

Love him and his staff. They have worked tirelessly since I had my DBS Surgery. Can’t say enough good things about my still ongoing issues. Would trust him with any neurosurgery ??

I have had Dr. McInerney for two surgeries. He is very caring, and answers any questions you may have. He is very thorough in explaining all options and possible side effects. I would highly recommend him as a neurosurgeon.

I was referred to Dr. McInerney from another neurosurgeon at Penn State. My experience was absolutely horrible and ridiculous! I called for a week straight trying to get a hold of him(or anybody) to get information about my follow up appointment. That never happened so, I even went into the office and had my primary physician send messages and call. This went on for 4 months! I or my primary physician never heard anything back from him. I'm done and would NEVER recommend him!!

He, along with an obvious broad knowledge of his Neurosurgery specialty, is a real people person. I would trust him without question!
