Neurology

Rutgers Health Neurology provides diagnosis, evaluation, treatment, and management for a range of neurological disorders in adults and children. We treat patients with diseases of the brain, spinal cord, nerves, or muscles. Our physicians and health care professionals emphasize excellence in disease prevention and compassionate patient care.

Physicians who are part of Rutgers Health Neurology are active in teaching, research, and service. Our doctors are on the faculty of Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School or Rutgers New Jersey Medical School. Both are parts of Rutgers University, one of the top research institutions in America. Each brings leading-edge knowledge from the classroom to the exam room.

We diagnose, treat, and manage many movement and neurological disorders, including:

  • Dementia
  • Disorders affecting vision such as optic neuritis
  • Epilepsy
  • Headache
  • Multiple Sclerosis
  • Neurogenetic disorders
  • Neuromuscular disorders such as
    • ALS (Lou Gehrig disease)
    • Myasthenia gravis
  • Parkinson's disease
  • Progressive supranuclear palsy and dystonia
  • Stroke

We have an on-site electromyography (EMG) laboratory, which helps us run routine and advanced nerve conduction studies and EMG tests for neuromuscular and motor control disorders, and can help us diagnose patients in a timely manner.

If you or a loved one is seeking treatment for a neurological condition, please contact Rutgers Health Neurology for an appointment.
