What is a comprehensive neurological examination?
Because the nervous system is complex, the neurological history and examination will explore a wide variety of body functions. The neurological examination will include tests of speech and memory, vision, strength, reflexes, coordination, balance, mobility and sensation. The examination may indicate that further tests are required. A plan for the diagnosis and/or treatment of your neurological problem will be formulated at your first visit. A schedule for testing and follow-up visits will be established. Educational materials and resources may be provided. A full report of your consultation will be sent to your referring physician. Please be sure to give us the name of your primary care physician.
