Neurology
Wake Forest University School of Medicine’s Department of Neurology is composed of 20 M.D. faculty members, including neurologists, neurospychologists, and pediatric neurologists. We have singular expertise in stroke, neuromuscular disease, epilepsy, pediatric neurology, movement disorders, neuro-ophthalmology, neuro-rehabilitation and general neurology.
We also have an extensive Fellowship Program offering post neurology residency graduate training in electromyography/neuromuscular disorders, electroencephalography/epilepsy, pediatric neurology, stroke, and neurosonology-ultrasound and intracranial cerebral circulation.
Third year medical students rotate for one month in the neurology service and many of them elect to pursue a career in neurology. A number of students from The Wake Forest University School of Medicine and from other university medical centers pursue elective rotations in our Neurology department during their fourth year. Such students include those from other countries such as Germany, India, Finland, and Italy.
Clinical care activities include a large Inpatient Neurology Service at The North Carolina Baptist Hospitals, Inc. We have a separate neurologic Acute Stroke Unit and an Epilepsy Monitoring Unit. We have superlative facilities in our Diagnostic Neurology laboratory such as EEG, video EEG, sleep studies, electromyography (EMG), and nerve conduction studies.
