Pediatric neurology

A neurologist is a doctor who diagnoses and treats disorders of the nervous system. A pediatric neurologist monitors children from birth to 18 years of age. The earlier a child’s central-nervous-system development disorder is detected, the more opportunities parents and doctors have to correct it. It is extremely important for parents to understand the need for a timely consultation with a pediatric neurologist in all such cases. The doctor examines the child, orders the necessary tests, and, after clarifying the diagnosis, prescribes treatment followed by rehabilitation.
