About Tien

“I enjoy research and developing cutting edge technology and new procedures to advance the field of neurosurgery and most importantly, improve outcomes for patients.”

As part of the St. Charles neurosurgical team, Dr. Tien leverages his extensive expertise in the areas of stroke treatment, spinal cord injuries, and brain trauma to help patients of all ages. He enjoys the interactions with patients who place almost unimaginable trust in his judgment, training, and ability. At the St. Charles Center for Orthopedics and Neurosurgery, he continues his passion for research and has completed numerous studies.

Dr. Tien studied Marine Biology in college, and pursued a PhD to do field research in the Antarctic. After completing his graduate work he started focusing on medicine with the intention of going into Internal Medicine or something similar where he could continue to do research. But once he started his surgery rotation, he was hooked, and completed his neurological surgery residency at OHSU in Portland. He went on to complete a two year fellowship in Interventional Neuroradiology. Dr. Tien has lived in Bend since 2004 and loves photography, as well as all the year round outdoor activities in the region.
