He completed his neurosurgery residency at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center in Oklahoma City. He then pursued an exceptionally deep fellowship training path focused on spinal deformity: a spine service fellowship at Medical College of Wisconsin, a spinal deformity and reconstructive surgery fellowship at the University of Virginia-Charlottesville, and three visiting fellowships at Hospital for Special Surgery in New York, Baylor Scoliosis Surgery Center in Texas, and Miami Children's Hospital in Florida. This breadth of fellowship training across multiple nationally recognized scoliosis programs is rare and reflects a level of subspecialty depth that goes well beyond standard neurosurgical training.

He is also a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons (FACS) and a member of the American Academy of Neurological Surgeons. His training includes two formal fellowships and three visiting fellowships in spinal deformity and scoliosis surgery at some of the country's most recognized centers in this subspecialty.
What does Dr. Bhattacharjee specialize in?
Dr. Bhattacharjee is a neurosurgeon with a focused subspecialty in scoliosis and spinal deformity surgery in both adult and pediatric patients. His five fellowship training experiences across spinal deformity and reconstructive surgery make him one of the most specifically trained scoliosis surgeons available to patients in Northeast Wisconsin and the broader region. Beyond scoliosis, he treats a range of conditions involving the brain, spine, and spinal cord, with particular depth in complex spinal reconstruction and spine surgery requiring deformity correction.
What is Dr. Bhattacharjee's approach to care?
Dr. Bhattacharjee's stated goal is to provide the best surgical interventions possible in addressing each person's special needs. He brings an individualized approach to surgical planning, particularly for complex scoliosis cases where no two patients present identically. Patients describe him as honest and supportive, with a staff team that consistently follows up when needed. His breadth of scoliosis fellowship training across multiple institutions reflects a commitment to bringing the best available techniques to each patient, drawing on approaches learned from some of the country's most respected spinal deformity surgeons.
What conditions does Dr. Bhattacharjee treat?
Dr. Bhattacharjee treats conditions involving the brain, spine, and spinal cord, with a particular subspecialty focus on scoliosis and spinal deformity in both adult and pediatric patients. His expertise covers adult degenerative scoliosis, adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, complex spinal deformity requiring reconstructive surgery, and other spine conditions requiring surgical intervention. He also provides general neurosurgical care for conditions of the brain and spinal cord, working as part of Neuroscience Group's integrated multidisciplinary team in Northeast Wisconsin.
What treatments or procedures does Dr. Bhattacharjee offer?
Dr. Bhattacharjee performs neurosurgical and spinal procedures with a primary focus on scoliosis and spinal deformity correction in adult and pediatric patients. His procedural expertise includes complex spinal reconstruction and deformity correction surgery, drawing on techniques refined across five fellowship training programs at nationally recognized scoliosis centers.

For each patient, he develops an individualized surgical plan that reflects the specific nature of their condition, their age and health status, and the goals of their care.
Where does Dr. Bhattacharjee see patients?
Dr. Bhattacharjee sees patients at five Neuroscience Group locations: Appleton OSP, Berlin, Fond du Lac, Green Bay Prevea, and Neenah. His presence across this range of locations, including community offices in Berlin, Fond du Lac, and Green Bay, means that patients across a wide swath of Northeast and Central Wisconsin can access his subspecialty scoliosis expertise without traveling to a major academic medical center. For surgical procedures, patients are typically seen at the main Neenah clinic or Appleton OSP locations.
How can I book an appointment with Dr. Bhattacharjee?
To request an appointment with Dr. Bhattacharjee, use the online appointment request form on his provider page at neurosciencegroup.com or call Neuroscience Group at (920) 725-9373. A scheduling team member will coordinate your appointment at whichever location is most convenient for you. Before your visit, you will be asked to complete registration and medical history paperwork. If you are being seen for scoliosis or a complex spinal condition, bringing prior imaging including full-length spine X-rays and any prior surgical records will help Dr. Bhattacharjee provide the most complete evaluation at your first appointment.
What should I expect at my first appointment with Dr. Bhattacharjee?
At your first appointment, Dr. Bhattacharjee will conduct a thorough evaluation of your spine condition, reviewing your imaging, symptoms, functional limitations, and prior treatment history. For scoliosis and spinal deformity patients, he will assess the degree and nature of the curve, discuss how it is affecting your daily life and long-term health, and explain the full range of treatment options including both surgical and nonsurgical approaches where appropriate. He is known for being honest and direct about what surgery can and cannot achieve, and for taking the time to ensure patients and families feel genuinely informed before any decisions are made. If prior imaging is not already available, Neuroscience Group's on-site MRI and imaging capabilities can support additional diagnostic workup at the same location.
