OUR Services
How Can I Help You?
Memory and Dementia care and complete testing and workup
Memory and Dementia Care focuses on the evaluation, diagnosis, and management of conditions that affect memory, thinking, behavior, and daily functioning.
Botox for Migrane
BOTOX® is the first and only FDAapproved preventive treatment for Chronic Daily Migraine headaches.
It is an injectable form of treatment, performed once every three months.
Injections are performed by our physicians for patients who meet certain criteria.
ELECTROENCEPHALOGRAM (EEG)
A non-invasive procedure that measures the electrical activity of the brain, similar to an EKG.
It is utilized for patients with seizures, memory loss, headaches, syncope and ADHD.
Botox injections for TMJ and Bruxism
Botox injections can be an effective nonsurgical treatment for patients suffering from TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorders and bruxism (teeth grinding or jaw clenching).
By relaxing overactive jaw muscles—primarily the masseter and temporalis muscles—Botox helps reduce muscle tension, alleviate jaw pain, decrease headaches, and minimize damage caused by chronic grinding.
Botox/Dysport/Xeomin injections for spasticity
Botox® (onabotulinumtoxinA), Dysport® (abobotulinumtoxinA), and Xeomin® (incobotulinumtoxinA) are FDA-approved injectable treatments used to help manage muscle spasticity, a condition characterized by involuntary muscle tightness, stiffness, and spasms.
Transcranial Doppler ultrasound (TCD)
Transcranial doppler ‘ultrasound’ (TCD) is a non-invasive imaging modality used to help in the diagnosis of conditions affecting blood flow within the brain.
It is used to screen patients with stroke, syncope, dizziness, aneurysm and other vascular malformations. It is also used for the surveillance of Sickle Cell disease.
Carotid Ultrasound
Carotid ultrasound is a non-invasive imaging modality that produces images of the carotid arteries in the neck which carry blood from the heart to the brain.
It is most frequently used to screen patients for blockage or narrowing of the carotid arteries. It is used in patients with stroke, syncope and frequent or constant dizziness.
Trigger Point Injections
Muscle injections treat painful ‘knots’ for symptomatic relief. Very fine needles are used for these procedures.
The medication used is the common numbing medication, Lidocaine.
