When to See a Neurologist
A neurological condition is one that affects the brain, spinal cord or nervous system. There are a number of neurological symptoms that could point to a possible problem, including:
- Chronic neck pain
- Dizziness
- Frequent headaches
- Movement problems
- Numbness or tingling
- Seizures
- Sleep issues
- Vision problems
- Weakness
Neurological conditions can affect many of your basic bodily functions including balance. For patients experiencing dizziness and balance issues, vestibular therapy may be recommended. The sooner you identify a neurological condition and start treatment, the more likely you are to resolve the issue, or at least limit the complications.

Advancing Neuroscience Medicine Through Research
UH Neurological Institute is home to a thriving research program that is committed to quickly turning ground-breaking discoveries into better patient care. For example, we are the only U.S. hospital offering multiple hippocampal transection as a surgical solution to eliminate seizures and effectively cure epilepsy. Also, we were the first in the world to test diaphragm pacing stimulation. This technique can slow the rate of breathing failure in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) or Lou Gehrig’s disease.
