Department overview

Neurology focuses on conditions affecting the brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerves and the wider nervous system. The department evaluates symptoms such as recurrent headaches, dizziness, seizures, weakness, tremors, changes in sensation, memory difficulties and problems with balance or coordination. A detailed medical history and neurological examination help clinicians assess symptoms and determine the need for further investigation. Neurological conditions can vary from common headache disorders to complex conditions such as stroke, epilepsy, movement disorders and neurodegenerative diseases. Assessment and management depend on the patient's symptoms, clinical findings, medical history and diagnostic results. The treatment plan may include medication, monitoring, lifestyle guidance and coordination with other medical specialties where necessary. The goal of neurological care is to support timely diagnosis, appropriate treatment and ongoing management of neurological conditions. Patients may require follow-up consultations to assess treatment response, monitor changes in symptoms and adjust their care plan according to their individual needs.
