Neurology

Diagnosing and Treating Neurological Conditions

We provide world-class, compassionate care to patients with brain diseases and disorders from the most common to the most complex.

We specialize in treating patients with a variety of neurological disorders ranging from headaches, movement disorders, stroke, neuromuscular disorders, seizure disorders/epilepsy, multiple sclerosis and dementia. Our skilled physicians provide decades of combined experience. Some of our locations also provide Botox for migraines and baclofen pump management.

Successful treatment begins with accurate diagnosis. Our neurophysical diagnostic testing includes:

  • EEG (electroencephalogram) - a test that measures and records the electrical activity of the brain.
  • EKG or ECG (electrocardiogram) - a test that checks for problems with the electrical activity of the heart.
  • EMG (electromyogram) - a test that measures the electrical impulses of muscles at rest and during contraction.
  • Evoked Response Testing - tests that measure the time it takes for nerves to respond to stimulation as well as the size of the response. Nerves from different areas of the body may be tested.
  • Nerve Conduction Study - a test that measures how well and how fast the nerves can send electrical signals
