What an adult neurology visit covers
Adult neurology visits look at symptoms that may involve the brain, spinal cord, nerves, or muscles. Dr. Shawn Sedgh, MD completed residency training in pediatrics (3 years) and neurology (3 years), so the same practice also explains the pediatric side when a family needs both.
Adults often start here for migraine and headache, epilepsy and seizures, movement disorders, neuropathy, memory and cognition, or concussion.
The practice serves Greater Los Angeles. Read how to find a neurologist in Los Angeles, or request an appointment.
