Comprehensive Care for the Brain & Spine

When specialized care is required, Baylor is one of the nation’s best.

While all medical conditions have the potential to be frightening, when you

face a problem with your brain or spine, you can become downright terrified.

We understand. You can rest assured in the knowledge that many consider

us the experts. U.S.News & World Report has recognized our neuro-

science center as one of the country's best five times in the past.

 

 

Our center combines experienced physicians in multiple specialties with

advanced technologies and pioneering research to provide innovative patient

care in these eight areas:

 

  • Cerebrovascular disorders/stroke care

 

 

Because neurological diseases and conditions are complex, the center offers patients one-stop access to neurologists, neurosurgeons, neuroradiologists and a support team with expertise in diagnosing and managing epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, brain tumors, sleep disorders and many other conditions. A nurse navigator simplifies access to the Baylor Neuorscience Center’s services and physicians on the medical staff at Baylor University Medical Center at Dallas.
