Vineeta Singh, MD

Dr. Singh is a neurointensivist (neurologist with training in critical care) who attends on the Neurovascular Service at Moffitt Hospital (our University Hospital). She graduated from the Institute of Medical Sciences in India and completed an Internal medicine residency from the same Institute. Her training in the United States included a neurology residency at Allegheny University hospital followed by a 2-yr neurocritical care fellowship at UCSF. She joined faculty in the Department of Neurology in July 2000.


Dr. Singh treats patients with cerebral aneurysms, vascular malformations, and stroke in the Neurological Intensive Care Unit and on the wards. She also sees patients with challenging neurovascular problems in the outpatient setting and has specialty interest in patients with dural-arterio venous fistula and patients with venous sinus thrombosis.


Her clinical research effort to study the natural history of Dural arteriovenous fistula is supported by NIH/NINDS. She is also developing an in vivo animal model to study the excitatory modulation and synaptic plasticity in the cortico-striatal region following stroke.
