Service overview

We provide a diagnostic outpatient service and specialised clinics to manage chronic long-term neurological conditions, including multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, motor nerve disease, and more.

What to expect

The service is provided through outpatient clinics where our neurology consultants and clinical specialists, alongside Neurology training registrars and clinical fellows, manage conditions on specific days. Appointments vary by condition and specialist.
