Neurology

Neurologists at Lake Forest Hospital are trained in the diagnosis and treatment of nervous system disorders, including diseases of the brain, spinal cord, nerves and muscles. Neurologists perform neurological examinations of the nerves of the head and neck; muscle strength and movement; balance, ambulation, and reflexes; and sensation, memory, speech, language and other cognitive abilities. They also perform diagnostic tests to aid in their diagnosis and treatment plan. At Lake Forest Hospital, we also have pediatric neurologists on staff.

Lake Forest Hospital’s Neurology department provides high quality care and treatment for patients with neurological disorders, in a caring and comfortable environment. The division provides treatment for a full range of neurological disorders, including Alzheimer’s, ALS, brain tumors, dizziness/vertigo, dementia, multiple sclerosis and more. Treatments range from prevention techniques to therapies and training exercises.
