In my practice, I treat the full spectrum of neurological conditions. The systems of the body covered by neurology include the central nervous system – that is, the brain and spinal cord – the blood vessels, and the peripheral nervous system, including its connections to the muscles and the musculature itself. A detailed discussion with the patient regarding their medical history and a physical examination tailored to their symptoms are of the utmost importance to me, as they form the basis for reaching the correct diagnosis and initiating targeted treatment.

Below is a list of the treatments I offer.

Seizure disorders

e.g. epilepsy, syncope, changes in consciousness

Movement disorders

e.g. Parkinson's syndrome, gait disorders, normal-pressure hydrocephalus, tremor

Botulinumtoxin A

Treatment with botulinum toxin A has proven to be extremely effective in managing a wide range of symptoms associated with neurological conditions (e.g. chronic migraine, spasticity, hyperhidrosis and dystonia). Following a thorough examination and the development of a personalised treatment plan, botulinum toxin therapy is administered via small, targeted injections into the affected muscles. The effects usually set in within a few days and last for up to several weeks. If necessary, the treatment can then be repeated.

Dementia

Mild cognitive impairment, e.g. Alzheimer’s disease, vascular dementia, dementia associated with Parkinson’s disease, dementia associated with normal-pressure hydrocephalus

Inflammatory diseases of the nervous system

e.g. multiple sclerosis, myelitis, meningitis, encephalitis

Disorders of the peripheral nervous system

e.g. polyneuropathies, entrapment syndromes such as carpal tunnel syndrome, facial nerve palsy

Headaches and facial neuralgia

e.g. migraine, tension-type headache, cluster headache, trigeminal neuralgia

Muscle disorders

e.g. myasthenia gravis, myositis

Neuro-orthopaedic conditions

e.g. spinal stenosis, herniated discs, radicular syndromes associated with degenerative spinal changes

Sleep disorders

e.g. restless legs syndrome, periodic limb movements during sleep (PLMS), sleep apnoea syndrome, difficulty falling and staying asleep

Stroke prevention

e.g. cardiovascular risk factors

Vertigo syndromes

e.g. central syndromes, benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, oscillatory vertigo, unilateral vestibular disorder

Cerebrovascular diseases (circulatory disorders of the brain)

e.g. strokes / cerebral haemorrhages, vascular anomalies, cerebral microangiopathy
