Kyle Grooms is a south Florida standup comedian who had a seizure and was rushed to Memorial. With tremors and weakness on his right side, a CAT scan showed a hemorrhage in Kyle’s brain. Worried that his standup career and quality of life might be in jeopardy, Kyle trusted his neurosurgeon Clinton Burkett, MD, at Memorial Neuroscience Institute, who told him surgery was the only option.

Dr. Burkett performed a successful left frontal craniotomy to remove a benign lesion in Kyle’s brain and he made a full recovery. Now, Kyle gratefully jokes about his positive care experience at Memorial and life after brain surgery. View More
