Personalized Specialist Care
Neurology Conditions Treated
Each condition is managed with modern & personalized neurological treatment. 80% of the patients are treated with medications alone.
Epilepsy / Seizures
Complete seizure control is possible with accurate diagnosis & precise medications. Selected cases need epilepsy surgery including Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS).
Excellent quality of life is possible with precise medications. Selected cases need Parkinsons surgery including Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) & MRI-guided ultrasound (MRg-FUS) surgery.
Headache / Migraine
Ruling out a serious cause such as a brain tumour is critical. Migraine can be cured by lifestyle changes & targeted migraine therapies.
Memory Loss / Dementia
Many causes of memory problems are treatable. NPH, OSA and B12 deficiency are some of them.
Paralysis / Stroke
Finding and treating the actual cause of stroke is critical. This prevents further strokes.
Dizziness / Vertigo
Vertigo is just another name for “dizziness”. Finding & treating the cause (for example BPPV) is important.
Pain - Face, Neck, Back, Legs
Face, Neck, Back, Legs
Each pain is treated differently. For example, Trigeminal Neuralgia & Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS) have very different treatments.
Our Procedures
Advanced Neurology Procedures
Even resistant Epilepsy and advanced Parkinson’s can get better with precise medications. Only a small number of patients need advanced treatments like Epilepsy surgery or Parkinson’s surgery.
EEG & Video EEG Monitoring
Video EEG monitoring enables accurate epilepsy diagnosis & effective treatment. Video EEG helps to pinpoint the bad brain area causing seizures. This bad area can be safely removed (Resective Epilepsy surgery)
Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS)
DBS is a surgical treatment for Parkinson’s disease and movement disorders. It stimulates the brain directly to reduce shaking, stiffness, and slowness. It improves quality of life & reduces high-dose medications.
Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS)
VNS is a device-based therapy for Epilepsy. VNS stimulates the Vagus nerve in the neck to regulate brain electricity. It reduces the frequency & intensity of seizures.
MRI Guided Ultrasound (MRg-FUS)
MRg-FUS is a quick & “bloodless” procedure for Parkinson’s disease. It markedly reduces shaking. It is a good choice for patients who are afraid of DBS surgery.
