Neuroscience is the branch of medicine that focuses on the central nervous system, including the brain, spinal cord and peripheral nerves. At Greenwich Hospital, the neuroscience team is made up of skilled neurosurgeons, neurologists, and specialists in related disciplines, including radiology and rehabilitation.
The Neurosciences Department at Greenwich Hospital is known for extraordinary care, offering advanced diagnosis and treatment of diseases and disorders of the brain, spinal cord and nervous system. The hospital’s Spine Institute specializes in advanced spinal fusion surgery, using the latest open and minimally invasive surgical techniques.
Greenwich Hospital neurologists include those with advanced training in several subspecialty areas. These include epilepsy, headache, movement disorders (e.g., dystonia, Parkinson’s disease), multiple sclerosis and neuroimmunology, neuromuscular medicine (e.g., Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis – ALS, muscular dystrophy), as well as stroke.
Patients receive individualized attention and expert care from a multidisciplinary team of neurologists, neurosurgeons, radiologists, physiatrists, nurses, physical therapists and other healthcare professionals.
Patient support for surgical patients includes organizing preoperative tests and admission procedures, making discharge arrangements, which may include rehabilitation and physical therapy, and helping patients understand insurance benefits. Hospitalized neurosurgery patients stay on our surgical inpatient unit.
