About
Mr Vergani is a Consultant Neurosurgeon specialising in the treatment of brain tumours and spinal degenerative disorders. His NHS post is at King’s College Hospital, London. He obtained his FRCS in neurosurgery in 2013.
He has a particular interest in the treatment of brain tumours, having completed the prestigious neuro-oncology fellowship at King’s College Hospital.

He is also specialised in surgery for tumours in eloquent areas of the brain, using brain mapping, neuromonitoring and awake surgery.
