- EpilepsyAs neurologists, we serve as consultants to other physicians in diagnosing and treating disorders of the nervous system, including diseases of the brain, brain injury (concussion), spinal cord, nerves and muscles. We also provide long-term care to those patients with chronic neurological disorders and neuro-oncological diseases. Some of the problems we diagnose and treat are stroke, epilepsy (seizures), brain tumor, headaches (migraines), dementias (Alzheimer’s Disease), multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, and various forms of pain. Our practice offers advanced diagnostic, therapeutic, and interventional procedures and treatments. All of the physicians in our group have subspecialties, which include stroke, neuromuscular, epilepsy, headache, oncology, and critical care. In addition to working with the most advanced technology available, we are focused on developing innovative treatments for neurological disorders through clinical research. Our increasingly sophisticated patients are encouraged to be educated and involved in the treatment options available to them as we develop a plan of care.
- UltrasoundCarotid ultrasound is a non-invasive diagnostic examination used to evaluate the condition of the major arteries in the neck. These arteries, called the Carotid arteries, supply the brain with blood. During the exam, an ultrasound transducer will be placed on an area of the neck over the arteries, producing an image displayed on a video screen. This test will take approximately 30 minutes, and is completely painless. No preparation is necessary for this exam; however, a low cut, loose fitting shirt or blouse will allow for better access. Take normal medication unless otherwise instructed.
