specialities

Neurology

was covered by internists and general practitioners until it grew more and more to eventually become an own speciality. Diagnostic procedures as well as therapeutic options have constantly improved. Many neurological diseases today like Multiple Sclerosis, Pakinson’s Disease, Migraine, Cluster- Headache and other headache specialties can nowadays be diagnosed and treated much better with newly developed medications which lead to an improved quality of life.

Neurological symptoms, if diagnosed at an early stage as a part of an underlying neurological disorder, can often be treated to mitigate the course of the disease or even to cure.

Our Neurological Center provides the whole spectrum necessary to diagnose and treat neurological diseases.

 

Neurological Diseases

Nerve root compression syndromes after disc problems or spinal stenosis, nerve root inflammations as part of Borreliosis or Herpes zoster

Parkinson’s disease and other movement disorders

Inflammatory diseases of the central and peripheral nervous system like Multiple Sclerosis (MS center according to the guidelines of the DGN (German Neurological Society) and the MSTKG (Multiple Sclerosis Therapy Konsensus Group)
