Neurology

Neurology means disorders and diseases of the brain and nervous system. Our clinical team consists of consultant neurologists and nurse specialists.

Epilepsy

Most patients are seen in the outpatient clinic by a consultant neurologist. Day case intravenous infusions are done at Maidstone Hospital, and lumbar punctures on both sites. Patients with urgent conditions may be admitted to an acute medical ward where neurologists offer a consultation service Monday to Friday. A few patients requiring highly specialist investigations and treatment may be referred to the regional neuroscience centre at King’s College Hospital in London.
