Pediatric Neurology

Treating Disorders of the Brain, Nervous System, and Muscles

---

Neurological problems — conditions affecting the brain, spinal cord, nerves, and muscles — can dramatically affect a child's quality of life. As a parent, you naturally want your child to receive the best medical treatment, but you also want a physician who can relate to your child and offer personalized care and attention.

As part of an academic medical practice, SLUCare pediatric neurologists use the latest technologies and treatment methods to care for children with neurological disorders. Just as importantly, our doctors are skilled in the art of putting children — and anxious parents — at ease.
