  • You will be asked for a detailed history of your condition.
  • A neurological examination will also be completed.
  • After a thorough evaluation has been performed, a plan of care is developed. We will inform you if additional testing is needed, or make recommendations regarding adjustments to current treatment regimens, or referrals to other physicians or consultants.

What to bring to your clinic visit

  • Bring a copy of your medical records pertaining to your condition which should include MRI, nerve conduction studies and other testing and/or imaging available.
  • Bring a current list of all medications and any allergies to medications.

What to expect for a nerve conduction study/EMG

A nerve conduction study is used to assess the health of your nerves, while an EMG tests the health of your muscles. The appointment will last from 30 to 60 minutes. Our neuromuscular neurologist will determine what type of specific testing to complete and briefly go over the results with you at the end of the visit. A full report will be sent to the referring physician.
