Martha L. Short

Overview

I have been working in neurosurgery in the Seattle area since 2002, and movement disorder neurosurgery since 2005. I work at a center with incredible surgeons, neurologists, and supporting staff. My current position, as senior practitioner in the Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) clinic, is my favorite. I love seeing the difference in patient’s lives before and after their procedure. I believe that well informed patients have an easier time going through their treatment.

Her clinical expertise encompasses Movement Disorders, Essential Tremor, and Deep Brain Stimulation.

Dr. Short is board certified in National Commission On Certification Of Physician Assistants. Dr. Short is currently accepting new patients.
