Neurologists

Neurologists diagnose and treat conditions affecting the brain, spinal cord, and nervous system without performing surgery. They spend their days seeing patients who experience symptoms like chronic headaches, seizures, memory problems, tremors, numbness, or difficulty with movement and coordination. During appointments, they conduct detailed neurological examinations, testing reflexes, muscle strength, sensation, and cognitive function to identify potential problems. They order and interpret diagnostic tests such as MRIs, CT scans, EEGs, and nerve conduction studies to pinpoint the source of neurological issues.
