Dr. Derek Smith is a neurology (brain & spinal cord disease) specialist in Norwich, CT. Dr. Smith attended the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School.

"I have been a patient of Dr. Smith's since he joined the team at Neurology Associates in 2006. Transitioning to his care did not happen immediately . Nor did I expect it to. Every patient with MS is "different". The first few office visits were similar with some of the same questions asked, although on file. He has a significant amount of information to digest in order to assign an appropriate treatment path. As time progressed I was completely comfortable under Dr. Smith's care. The visits became more personal and comfortable. He got to meet my family, and learn about my profession, hobbies, stresses, etc... Additionally, he is a guest/expert speaker at lunches and dinners for MS Patients. He also travels abroad in the US and globally in efforts to promote MS research within this field inclusive of drug companies (Biogen, Gentech, Roche, etc...) I am able to compose and submit my review today because of Dr. Derek Smith. He and his team keep me seeing straight, with minimal migraines and disease related exacerbations. When I need them they are there for me. I respectively ask others to reconsider their comments and overall review. This is a busy office. Some appointments take time, especially if it is a first visit. Putting yourself in their shoes and politely explaining your urgency can work wonders. Always remember to be your own patient advocate."

What is Neurology?

Neurology is the study of the brain and nervous system, including the spinal cord and nerves. Disorders of the nervous system can affect many parts of the body, and a neurological exam must be quite thorough. A neurologist examining a new patient will check for any issues with:

motor skills (the way your brain and muscles work together)
sensory skills (sight, hearing, taste, touch and smell)
nerve function
coordination and balance
changes in mood or behavior

A neurologist can order different kinds of tests to check the function of the brain and nerves. These tests may include a head CT scan (a type of 3-dimensional x-ray), an electroencephalogram (which measures the electrical impulses inside the brain), an MRI (a detailed image of the brain or spinal cord), or electromyography (which uses electricity to test nerve function). The results of the exam and the tests help neurologists diagnose and form treatment plans for disorders like multiple sclerosis, tremors, stroke, and migraine headaches.

Some neurological problems, such as certain brain tumors, may require surgical treatment. Since neurologists do not perform surgery, they will refer patients who need operations to a surgical subspecialist, such as a neurosurgeon. Beyond surgery, a neurologist might recommend any of the following treatments:

medication (such as interferon for MS or topiramate for migraines)
laser therapy (class IV laser treatment is sometimes used to alleviate peripheral neuropathy pain)
physical therapy (stretches and exercises can increase balance and range of motion, helping patients to move more easily and with less pain)

Therapies such as these can improve quality of life for patients dealing with neurological disorders. Neurologists help their patients sense and interact with the world at their very best.
