Brain Conditions We Treat
Our doctors are experts in treating a wide variety of brain, spinal cord and nervous system conditions in children. We can provide a full spectrum of care, from your child’s initial diagnosis through his or her treatment and recovery.
We offer the latest technologies so that doctors can develop the most accurate diagnosis of your child’s condition. At The Children's Hospital, your child’s doctors will speak to you about your child’s condition in a way you can understand, describe all treatment options, and explain what happens before, during and after each treatment. In addition to the team of specialists at Children’s who treat your child, the care team includes you, the family.
