Pediatric Neurology

What is Pediatric Neurology?

Pediatric Neurology encompasses disorders of the brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerve and muscle affecting infants, children and adolescents.

Comprehensive, Multidisciplinary Care for Your Child

Erlanger’s team of pediatric neurology subspecialists provide expert care for infants and children under the age of 18, offering comprehensive diagnostic evaluations and outpatient management for neurological disorders.
