How to Choose the Right Neurologist in Malakpet
- Check the qualification: look for a DM or DrNB in Neurology. Neurosurgeons (MCh) operate on the brain and spine, while neurologists treat these conditions mainly with medicines and procedures that do not need open surgery.
- Match the subspecialty: epilepsy, stroke, Parkinson’s disease, headache, neuromuscular disease and dementia each have doctors with a special interest.
- Look at the set-up: EEG, EMG, MRI and a 24-hour stroke and emergency team save time when symptoms are sudden.
- Bring your records: earlier MRI or CT films, EEG reports, blood tests and a list of current medicines make a first visit more useful.
- Ask about follow-up: long-term conditions such as epilepsy or migraine need regular review, so check the clinic’s follow-up plan.
Symptoms That Should Not Wait

Call emergency services or go to the nearest emergency department at once for sudden weakness or numbness on one side, facial drooping, slurred speech, sudden loss of vision, the worst headache of your life, a first-ever seizure, or loss of consciousness. Every minute counts in a stroke.
