"I "thought" I had done my homework by researching Dr Gardell. I was very wrong. I truly wish that I could remember all the sites I visited that gave him a 4 and 5 star rating. I won't deny that he is "apparently" an intelligent person based only on the fact that he has been to Med school and received his license. However, in MY opinion, that knowledge is all he has. If you are unable to put it to use with your patients in a loving, caring and compassionate manner while having all that "knowledge and education" then as far as I'm concerned you are "failing" as a so called doctor. Dr Gardell spent about 15 minutes with me on my first (and only) Appt. The only result was that he ordered tests and told me to come back in 3 months. Test results of MRI and mra were given to me over the phone as being "unremarkable" but the nurse was unable to answer any questions. All questions would have to be taken up with Dr Gardell at my follow up in 3 months. Results for an EEG are still pending. The results are in, but Dr Gardell is out of the office now for 2 weeks so they are unable to tell me what they are without him signing off on it. WOW, that test was done right there in their office and was to be read by Dr Gardell himself. I'm getting my text results directly from the Hospital that did them and I will take them to a Dr that has intelligence and some human traits like compassion. My opinion... DO NOT WASTE YOUR PRECIOUS TIME AND MONEY ON DR GARDELL. Sorry so long, but I feel very strongly that people should know. "

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.
