Providers in the Department of Neurology diagnose and treat disorders of the central and peripheral nervous systems, which include the brain, spinal cord, and outlying nerves in the body.
Patients who suffer from severe headaches, back and neck problems, seizures, and brain disorders may seek the assistance of a neurologist. Neurologists also diagnose and treat muscle diseases and diagnose or rule out conditions such as epilepsy, cerebral palsy, brain tumors, brain injuries, or stroke.
