Barrow Neurological Institute Welcomes New CEO

Barrow Neurological Institute has a new president and CEO, and he’s got some big scrubs to fill.

Dr. Michael Lawton takes over for Dr. Robert Spetzler, who retired last year after three decades at Barrow. Lawton spent about 20 years as chief of Vascular Neurosurgery at the University of California-San Francisco. He's also currently vice chairman of the Department of Neurological Surgery there.

Lawton took over the top spot at Barrow earlier this summer, and he's here to talk about it.
