• Thorough evaluation of seizures and classification of the type of epilepsy in children and adults
• Comprehensive evaluation for epilepsy surgery
• Radiological & nuclear imaging (high resolution MRI, PET and Ictal SPECT), and referral for MEG (magnetoenecephalopgraphy).
• Epilepsy surgery, including implantation of stereotactic depth EEG (SEEG) electrodes or subdural grids/strips to map seizure focus and map the motor and language functions, laser guided interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) for removal of a discrete seizure focus
• Neuromodulation Program: Responsive Neurostimulation (RNS), Vagal Nerve Stimulation (VNS), Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS)
• Neuropsychological evaluations
• Individualized treatment plans and follow-up care, such as ketogenic diet, referral for epilepsy surgery including resective surgery, laser ablation, RNS, DBS or VNS
• Ambulatory EEG

• Parkinson’s disease: can cause resting tremors, slowness of movement or trouble walking, stiffness, and/or dystonia.
• Essential Tremor (aka Familial Tremor): tremor that primarily occurs when performing an action like eating or drinking. This often occurs in the hands but can also occur in the head and neck. This type of tremor tends to run in families.
• Tardive Dyskinesia: involuntary movements of the face, mouth, tongue, trunk, or limbs. Facial movements may include lip smacking, tongue protrusion or pursing of the lips.
• Tourette’s Syndrome: a condition involving motor or vocal tics. Stress or anxiety can make these worse.
• Huntington’s disease: an inherited disease that leads to the deterioration and dysfunction of nerve cells in certain parts of the brain. Chorea is a common abnormal movement seen in Huntington’s disease.

• Hemorrhagic Stroke: Bleeding within the brain when weakened blood vessels rupture and bleed.
• Intracerebral Hemorrhage: Bleeding occurs from the blood vessels and blood collects within the brain tissue.
• Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: Bleeding occurs from blood vessels on the surface of the brain and collects around the brain. Sometimes this is caused by a ruptured aneurysm (a weak or thin spot on the anterior blood vessel).
• Ischemic Stroke: A type of stroke that occurs when an artery bringing blood to the brain is suddenly blocked. The blockage may be due to a blood clot, thrombus, or embolus which can form for many reasons.
• Thrombus: Occurs when a blood clot forms within an artery leading to or in the brain. When a fatty substance, such as cholesterol, forms plaque in the lining of a blood vessel, the opening in the blood vessel will gradually narrow.  The plaque may break off or allow a blood clot to form, blocking a blood vessel and causing a stroke.
• Embolus: Occurs when a blood clot is formed in an artery in another part of the body, such as heart, neck, or legs. A piece of that blood clot breaks loose, becomes the embolus, and travels to an artery in the brain where it blocks blood flow.
• Transient Ischemic Attack “TIA”: Like an ischemic stroke, the symptoms are caused when blood flow to a part of the brain is suddenly cut off, but only for a short period of time. The brain cells are not working normally, however the blood flow restarts before the brain cells start to die.  Symptoms usually last less than 1 hour but no more than 24 hours.
