Dr. Aziz-Sultan is Chief of the Vascular Neurosurgery at Mass General Brigham,is Co-Director of the Comprehensive Stroke Center and an Associate Professor of at Harvard Medical School.

Hecompleted his training in neurosurgery< under the mentorship of world-renowned cerebrovascular surgeons and later went on to cross train in endovascular under leaders in neurointerventional radiology. Training closely under the guidance of pioneers in two distinct fields has allowed him to develop an independent multidisciplinary approach to patient care, utilizing and merging different ideologies and techniques into the evolving field of hybrid cerebrovascular surgery<. This opportunity to learn from mentors in sometimes competing fields has taught him the value of collaboration and the tremendous strides that can be made through cross pollination of ideas and disciplines. He has used these principles of integration to form a world-class team at Brigham; a cerebrovascular center consisting of neurologists, neuroradiologists, neurosurgeons, and basic scientists.

His pursuit of clinical excellence has led him to form multi disciplinary clinics to treat and study patients with cerebrovascular disease by evaluation and input by physicians from different disciplines. This team supports local physicians and hospital systems through direct proctoring or collaborative research projects. It has described a number of novel treatment options for patients with cerebrovascular disease. The team has designed two state of the art stand-alone hybrid operating rooms that allow it to perform procedures that were not previously possible with un-paralleled efficiency and safety using the latest in imaging and surgical technology.

Dr. Aziz-Sultan's research pursuits have led his team to enroll in a number of important clinical trials focusing on stroke, novel aneurysm devices, and intracerebral hemorrhages. He is conducting a number of these trials through joint efforts between the neurology, neurosurgery<, and radiology departments. This includes working on novel projects with neuroscientists on the application of biomarkers and stem cells in the diagnosis and treatment of stroke. He collaborates with the BWH neuro-oncology group to utilize cerebrovascular imaging, access, and drug delivery to treat tumors of the CNS.

  • Dr Sultan and [redacted] were great! Put me at ease with at first scary situation

    2026-05-23

  • I am a new patient so some of my info transferred in was incorrect but that was not the provider's or nurse's (nurse just for pre-interview & vitals) fault. Very happy (well of course I did get a health ??) with the quality of care.

    2026-05-23

  • Both the PA and doctor went over my MRA showing me the last and comparing to current. In this way, I was reassured that my aneurysm is stable, and that no intervention is needed at this time. I trust Dr Sultan and feel confident in his advice. His P A was so kind and reassuring and paved the way for Dr Sultan's visit with me. She was wonderful. She made my sister and I very confident. Iove Brigham.
