Welcome to Child Neurology
The Section of Child Neurology is nationally recognized for providing outstanding consultation, clinical care, and surgery for children and adolescents with neurological disorders. Services offered include comprehensive evaluation and treatment of neurological disorders, parent and patient education, comprehensive neurological consultation services, and inpatient and outpatient treatment.
The team is recognized as a leader in the diagnosis and treatment of epilepsy and seizure disorders, neuromuscular diseases, movement disorders, pediatric stroke, and genetic disorders affecting the nervous system. Programs are designed to help coordinate the multiple specialists and services required for optimal diagnosis and treatment of these illnesses.
The faculty members are active in translational and clinical research in the neurosciences that will lead to improved treatment options for patients with neurological disorders. As the largest medical center in the western region providing such broad expertise, Child Neurology at TCH is the referral center for children and adolescents with neurological disorders for much of the western U.S.
The Section of Child Neurology currently has 30 pediatric faculty members - including physicians, neuropsychologists, researchers, and nurse practitioners - 10 clinical staff, and 7 residents/fellows. The main office and the majority of clinical services are located at The Children's Hospital, in Aurora, Colorado.
