Biography

Dr. Soliman has special expertise in spine tumor management using navigation-based and minimally invasive surgery. He is currently one of the few spine surgeons in Wisconsin certified in endoscopic spine surgery.

“I believe in a patient-centered, multi-faceted approach to spine disease. Providing continuous optimal care is my mission as is mentoring residents and medical students. I always put myself in my patients’ shoes and make sure I do right by them.”
