OUR COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH
Our integrated inpatient and outpatient care model ensure seamless, high-quality treatment from initial diagnosis to advanced surgical interventions and follow-up care. This continuity of care allows for effective management of both emergent conditions, such as stroke or trauma, and chronic disorders requiring long-term neurological monitoring.
INPATIENT CARE
We specialize in the acute management of complex neurological and neurosurgical emergencies:
- 24/7 Emergency Stroke Care: Both hospitals are equipped with Stroke Centers offering immediate intervention, including thrombectomy and neuroimaging for precise diagnosis.
- Neurotrauma Services: Our teams are skilled in treating traumatic brain and spinal cord injuries with cutting-edge surgical techniques and neurointensive care.
- Neurosurgical Interventions: Including craniotomies for brain tumors and hemorrhages, spinal surgeries, and angiographies.
OUTPATIENT CARE
Our outpatient services focus on the continuity of neurological care for chronic conditions and post-operative recovery:
- Neurological Diagnostic Services: We offer EEGs, EMGs, and Transcranial Doppler (TCD) studies for comprehensive neurological assessments.
- Outpatient Procedures: Including Botox injections for migraine and dystonia, nerve blocks, and follow-up care for neurosurgical patients.
- Long-term Care and Monitoring: Patients with neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s receive personalized care plans, including cognitive evaluations, and medication management.
INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGIES
We employ the latest advancements in neuroimaging, robotics, and minimally invasive surgeries. Our commitment to utilizing AI-driven diagnostic tools and precision neurosurgical techniques ensures patients receive the most advanced care available.
- AI-assisted stroke diagnostics for rapid and accurate intervention.
- Minimally invasive spine surgeries with robotic assistance, leading to faster recovery times.
- Advanced neuroimaging such as MRI-guided surgeries for precise tumor removal.
Collaborative and Patient-Centered Care
Our multidisciplinary team brings together neurologists, neurosurgeons, neurointerventional, and neurointensivists, all working together to provide comprehensive and individualized care. This collaborative approach leads to better patient outcomes, as it ensures that all aspects of a patient’s neurological health are addressed, from acute surgical interventions to long-term outpatient management.
