Dr. David S. Sabsevitz is an Associate Professor at Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Florida with dual appointments in the Department of Psychiatry and Psychology (primary) and the Department of Neurosurgery (joint). As a board-certified clinical neuropsychologist, he specializes in the evaluation and treatment of adults with neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders, with particular expertise in onco-epilepsy and functional brain mapping.
Dr. Sabsevitz's research focuses on advancing techniques for functional brain mapping during awake craniotomy procedures, with numerous publications on cognitive outcomes following brain tumor resection, seizure monitoring during surgery, and the development of standardized protocols for intraoperative mapping. His work bridges clinical neuropsychology with neurosurgical practice to optimize patient outcomes.
His recent publications (2023-2025) demonstrate a strong emphasis on awake craniotomy techniques, novel approaches to electrocorticography, quality of life outcomes following brain tumor surgery, and the development of standardized protocols for functional brain mapping. These works reflect his commitment to advancing evidence-based practices in the field of neurosurgical neuropsychology.
Professional Recognition:
- Board Certified by American Board of Professional Psychology in Clinical Neuropsychology (2013)
- Chair, Ethics Committee, American Board of Clinical Neuropsychology (2025-present)
- Examiner, American Board of Clinical Neuropsychology (2022-present)
- Member, American Academy of Clinical Neuropsychology (2013-present)
