At Cape Fear Valley Health, we understand neurological conditions affect every part of your life. Whether you’re looking for pain relief, improved mobility, or to better manage your condition, we offer the highest neurological care locally.
Our Approach to Neuroscience
Neurology is a specialty that covers health concerns related to the brain, spine, and nervous system. We believe delivering leading-edge neuroscience care, close to home, is important. We all know a friend or neighbor who deals with a neurological condition.
Our neurologists and neurosurgeons provide diagnoses and treatment for a wide range of medical conditions from aneurysms to epilepsy, from Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s to spinal cord injuries. Collaborating with specialists in other departments, we tailor your program to treat your current symptoms and prevent future ones.
How Your Journey With Us Begins
To do this, your neurology care team will consider:
- Your health history
- Perform an examination
- Understand your symptoms and reason for the appointment
- Order specific tests depending on the condition
- Discuss initial diagnosis and next steps
We’ll address your concerns, answer questions, and then work with you to create a care plan — discussing all your options.
