Neurology & Neurosurgery in Greensboro, NC

Your nervous system is one of the most vital systems in your body. Our board-certified neurologists provide exceptional care for even the most critical neurological diseases.

Our experienced neurosurgeons are surgical experts who use the newest and most advanced medical technologies to operate on the brain, spine and nerves.

Every neurology visit at a Novant Health facility will differ depending on your unique needs. Generally, a trip to a neurologist or neurosurgeon includes a conversation about your medical history and any symptoms you are experiencing.

Your physician will typically conduct a physical and neurological exam that tests your muscle strength, reflexes and coordination. Your physician may also explain your treatment options and any associated benefits or risks.
