Pediatric Neurology at Emory-Children's Center
The Emory-Children's Center Division of Neurology is dedicated to the evaluation and care of children with disorders of the brain, nerves, muscles and spinal cord. Our staff cares for children of all ages, from infants to adolescents.
Our pediatric neurologists are available 24 hours a day for routine or emergency inpatient and outpatient consultations. We work closely with each patient's primary care pediatrician to insure continuity of care and with each patient's family to insure that their many questions are answered.
About Pediatric Neurology Specialists
Pediatric Neurology is the medical specialty of evaluating, treating and caring for infants, children, adolescents, and in certain circumstances young adults with known or suspected problems involving the brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerves or muscles. At Emory University School of Medicine, Pediatric Neurology is taught as a clinical rotation to Medical Students in their fourth year of training as a four-week rotation that will satisfy their required Neurology Course Requirements.
All residents in Neurology must spend three months on the Pediatric Neurology service to meet basic eligibility requirements for the Board of Neurology and Psychiatry to become Board certified in Neurology. Pediatric Residents and Child Development may take a four-week rotation on the Pediatric Neurology service during their training. Child Psychiatry fellows rotate through the Pediatric Neurology Clinic as part of their training. This constantly changing mix of learners who interact with the Pediatric Neurology faculty whose responsibilities also rotate allows each individual’s Pediatric Neurology rotation to be unique in exposure to Pediatric Neurology disease at unpredictable volumes.
