What does a neurologist do?

Neurologists can help you determine whether symptoms you are experiencing are related to your brain, spine or nervous system and how to treat them. You may get referred to a neurologist if you have experienced:

Chronic headaches, back or neck pain
Concussion, stroke or other brain injury
Tremors or other movement disorders
Seizures
Sudden declines in vision or mental acuity, including memory
Sleep problems

During your first visit, the neurologist may ask about your medical history and your symptoms, perform a physical examination and order tests. If you are experiencing pain, they may order an x-ray, recommend stretching exercises and prescribe medications. Or, depending on your symptoms, they may recommend more tests and a follow-up visit.

Why would I see a neurosurgeon?

Your neurologist might refer you to a neurosurgeon if you are not responding to their care plan and/or they think you might benefit from a surgical procedure. A neurosurgeon and/or someone on their team will review your medical history and may also ask questions, perform a physical exam and order more advanced tests to help them determine if structural issues might be causing your problem and whether surgery is indicated.

Back and spinal pain relief

Back and spinal pain are among the most frequent neurological conditions we treat. Your neurological care team will identify and address the source of your pain and design a personalized care plan. In some cases, it may directly result from damage to the nervous system that causes the nerves to emit pain signals. It might also indicate an underlying problem like a herniated disc or degenerative spinal condition.
