Improving Quality of Life for Patients

Improving Quality of Life for Patients

The Neuromuscular Program strives to provide a diagnosis, improve care, outcome, and quality of life for patients suffering from disorders of nerve and muscle. Our program includes the Neuromuscular Clinic, the Muscular Dystrophy Clinic, the Motor Neuron Disease Clinic, and the EMG Laboratory.

As a team, we work together to diagnose your condition by evaluating numbness and weakness and determining if these symptoms are caused by diseases of:

  • nerve,
  • neuromuscular junction, or
  • muscle.

We also conduct significant research to guide treatment decisions to the latest treatment options.
