As neurologists, our physicians are specialty-trained to treat disorders of the nervous system. This includes diseases of the brain, spinal cord, nerves, and muscles. All of our neurologists have additional fellowship training in a sub-specialty so that they offer both general neurology and specialization in a particular area such as seizures or stroke. They are all dedicated to providing the care you need. Equally important, they believe good communication with patients and their referring physicians is a critical component of care.
