Neurology
Dr. Mit Ankur Raval
Comprehensive neurological assessment across common and complex disorders, with focused clinical interests in Movement Disorders and Headache Medicine.
The right diagnosis starts with the right clinical pattern.
Neurological symptoms can arise from the brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerves, neuromuscular system or other conditions that mimic neurological disease.
History
Onset, progression, triggers, associated symptoms and functional impact often narrow the diagnosis.
Neurological examination
Cognition, speech, cranial nerves, eye movements, strength, tone, reflexes, sensation, coordination, gait and movement phenomenology may all matter.
Targeted investigations
MRI/CT, EEG, EMG-NCS, blood tests or other studies are selected to answer specific clinical questions.
Second opinions
Review may be useful when the diagnosis remains uncertain, symptoms progress, treatment is ineffective or the situation is complex.
What patients may seek neurological assessment for.
Movement & gait
Tremor, slowness, stiffness, abnormal movements, freezing, falls or unexplained balance problems.
Headache
Migraine, chronic headache, unusual headache patterns or headaches that are difficult to control.
Weakness & sensory symptoms
Numbness, tingling, burning pain, weakness or foot drop.
Seizures & episodic events
First suspected seizure, recurrent episodes of loss of awareness or unexplained transient neurological events.
Memory & cognition
Memory decline, cognitive change, behavioural symptoms or concerns raised by family.
Dizziness & balance
Persistent dizziness, imbalance, recurrent falls or neurological causes of vestibular symptoms.
When not to wait for a routine appointment.
Sudden weakness or facial asymmetry
Seek emergency care immediately.
Sudden speech or visual difficulty
