We are committed to serving the Miami area with treatments that fit a patient’s individual needs. Every case is different, each patient is an individual different from the next. Below you’ll find some of the more common conditions we specialize in, followed by a more extensive list:
When damage occurs to the nerves outside of the brain or spinal cord, termed peripheral nerves, it can often lead to weakness, numbness, and even severe pain. There are many different types of neuropathy. We’ll set up a series of tests to provide the most accurate diagnosis leading to the best treatment for your neuropathy.
One of the most common medical symptoms people experience is cervical and lumbar pain. In order to determine the cause, an organized approach to analyzing your condition will point to the diagnosis and best treatments possible.
Epilepsy is caused by excessive and abnormal electrical activity in the brain and can be triggered by several different things. You may experience epileptic symptoms due to a genetic disorder or a brain injury, or it may be what is referred to as idiopathic (not identifiable at this time).
Dementia is a disorder which manifests as a set of related symptoms, which usually surface when the brain is damaged by injury or disease. The symptoms involve progressive impairments in memory, thinking, and behavior, which negatively affects a person's ability to function and carry out everyday activities. Some degree of memory loss is considered normal aging.
Parkinson's disease is a slowly progressive, degenerative disorder of the central nervous system that mainly affects the motor system. The symptoms usually emerge slowly, such as rigidity, tremor, and imbalance, and as the disease worsens, non-motor symptoms become more common.
Multiple sclerosis is the most common demyelinating disease affecting the central nervous system, in which the insulating covers of nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord are damaged. This damage disrupts communication between the brain and the body. Symptoms can include anything from vision loss to coordination problems.
