Spectrum Health Medical Group neurologists diagnose, treat and manage conditions affecting the brain, spinal cord and nerves. As specialists, they have advanced training in neurology, a branch of medicine focused on the study and treatment of nervous system disorders.

Many of our neurologists subspecialize in a particular field within neurology. This means that patients with complex neurological problems receive the latest treatment approaches from the most knowledgeable physicians in that specialty.

Services We Provide

Neurologists provide neurological examinations and coordinate neurological testing and imaging services to accurately evaluate and diagnose a neurological disorder. They lead and manage a patient’s treatment plan, coordinating care and services as needed with other neuro specialists such as neuroradiologists, neurosurgeons, neuropsychologists, rehabilitation specialists, and psychiatrists and psychologists.

In addition, our neurologists provide second opinions and the opportunity for patients to participate in clinical trials of promising new medications and innovative treatment approaches.

Our team also includes neurohospitalists who coordinate the highest level of neurological care for patients while they are in the hospital. Neurohospitalists improve the safety and quality of care by connecting various specialists that may be involved with a particular patient’s treatment. This means shorter stays in the hospital and better clinical outcomes.
