Get to know Pediatric Neurological Surgeon Dr. Lawrence B. Daniels III, who serves patients in Cedar Knolls, New Jersey.
Dr. Daniels III is a fellowship-trained pediatric neurological surgeon who is comfortable with the entire scope of adult and pediatric neurosurgery. He is the Director of the New Neurons Neurosurgical Institute in Cedar Knolls, New Jersey.
His primary mission is to provide patients with exemplary service and exceptional neurosurgical care. Priding himself in going the extra mile for his patients and their families, he believes that his responsibility to serve them supersedes the business of medicine.
“Oftentimes, my family members ask me, ‘What is the most important thing for me to look for when I’m choosing my doctor or a surgeon?’ I always tell them to choose a doctor they trust and one that recognizes and acknowledges the immense humanity in what we do” as stated by the doctor.
Following the completion of his Bachelor of Science degrees in Psychology and Business Administration from the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, Dr. Daniels III went on to obtain his medical degree from the University of California, Los Angeles School of Medicine in 2004. Upon graduation, he was awarded the Washington Scholars Research Fellowship at the Maxine Dunitz Neurosurgical Institute – Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.
During his research fellowship, he worked on the development of a dendritic cell vaccine for malignant brain tumors. He also worked on research that aimed to selectively increase the permeability of the blood-brain-tumor barrier in an attempt to increase the amount of chemotherapy that enters cancers that travel to the brain from other parts of the body.
Wanting to further his training, Dr. Daniels III completed his internship in general surgery at the University of California, San Francisco East Bay Program and his pediatric surgery rotation at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in 2006. Thereafter, he completed his residency in neurology at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in 2012, followed by his fellowship in pediatric neurology at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia in 2013.
With an unwavering commitment to his speciality, he is board-certified through the American Board of Neurological Surgery, whose mission is to encourage the study, improve the practice, elevate the standards, and advance the science of neurological surgery and thereby serve the cause of public health.
Additionally, he remains a member of several professional organizations, including the International Society of Pediatric Neurosurgery and Mentoring in Medicine (where he serves on the Board of Directors).
With research interests in neuro-oncology and craniofacial surgery, Dr. Daniels III is currently conducting clinical and translational studies in both areas. His previous research experience includes: “Analysis of molecular markers that may discriminate different survival subsets in pediatric patients with tumors of the nervous system” – Prospective and Retrospective Clinical Study (Lead Investigator / August 2010 – July 2012); “A Children’s Hospital at Montefiore Protocol for Collecting and Banking and rapidly creating cell lines from Pediatric Brain Tumors” – Prospective Clinical Study (Lead Investigator / October 2010 – July 2012); Cedar Sinai Maxine Dunitz Neurosurgical Institute (Research Fellow / July 2004 – July 2005); “Stage directed augmentation of dendritic cell function” (Research Fellow / July 2002 – September 2002); “Analysis of spontaneously occurring programmed cell death in adult rats” (Research Assistant / May 2001 – September 2001); “Prejudice attitudes and discriminatory behavior as a product of resentment” – USC Psychology, Honors Thesis (January 1999 – May 2000); and a study investigating the genetic origins of Alzheimer’s disease and psycho dementia in the Alzheimer’s patient (Research Assistant / September 1997 – January 1998).
Striving to contribute to the advancement of science and technology in the field of neurosurgery, Dr. Daniels III has conducted numerous lectures, publications, and presentations, including: 42th Annual Meeting of the International Society for Pediatric Neurosurgery, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, November 9-13th, 2014 (Presentation); 39th Annual Meeting of the International Society for Pediatric Neurosurgery, Goa, India, October 16 -20, 2011 (Presentation); UCLA School of Medicine, August 2002 (Poster Presentation); and Western Medical Research Forum, February 2002 (Abstract Publication), to name a few.
Throughout his fruitful career, his diverse accolades include: USC Business School Marshall Honors’ Program (January 1997), USC Psychology Honors’ Program (August 1997), USC Ebonics Scholarship (1997-1998), Mersereau Scholarship (1998-1999), USC General Scholarship (1997-2000), National Medical Fellowship (2002-2003), and Washington Scholars Fellowship (2004-2005).
Pediatric neurosurgery is a subspecialty of neurosurgery, which includes surgical procedures that are related to the nervous system, brain and spinal cord, that treats children with operable neurological disorders. Pediatric neurosurgeons treat children from the newborn period through the teenage years. They choose to make pediatric care the core of their medical practice, and the unique nature of medical and surgical care of children is learned from advanced training and experience in practice.
