Neurology

Meet Our Neurologists and Brain Specialist Doctors

Neurology is a medical discipline focused on the diagnosis and treatment of disorders affecting the nervous system, including the brain, spinal cord, and nerves. Neurologists, often referred to as brain specialists or brain doctors, play a critical role in managing neurological disorders. They specialise in various areas, such as epilepsy treatment, stroke treatment, and Alzheimer's treatment. When surgical intervention is necessary, a neurologist may refer the patient to a neurosurgeon. 

There are also subspecialties within neurology, such as paediatric neurologists, who focus on neurological issues in children, and movement disorder specialists, who treat conditions like Parkinson's disease. For specific conditions, such as concussions, headaches, and seizures, patients may seek out a neurologist for headaches or a concussion specialist. Neurology specialists work closely with patients to develop comprehensive treatment plans, including hemorrhagic stroke treatment, to manage and improve their neurological health. Whether it's managing chronic conditions or providing acute care, neurologists are essential in the field of medicine.
