The human nervous system — the brain, spinal cord and nerves — is an intricate network that controls all the body’s functions, from breathing and swallowing to walking and learning.

Problems with this complex system — such as Parkinson’s disease, stroke, epilepsy, brain tumors and dementia — require expert diagnosis and treatment by a team of highly skilled physicians.

Our UCI Health neurologists are national leaders in the care of patients suffering from stroke, seizures, brain tumors, degenerative nerve diseases, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease and other movement disorders, as well as memory disorders, including Alzheimer's disease.

As part of Orange County’s only academic medical center, our neurologists also actively pursue leading-edge research to advance care for these diseases and conditions. This means our patients often have access to new therapies and treatments before they are available elsewhere.
