how neurology care is organised at CNS →Key Takeaways
- Adults 18 and older, outpatient, diagnostic and medical rather than surgical.
- Six diagnostic studies performed and interpreted in-house at both offices.
- Imaging, infusion therapy, sleep studies, audiology and rehabilitation are coordinated with outside providers.
- Surgery, interventional pain programmes, emergency and inpatient care and paediatric neurology are not provided.
- Both offices are in the Las Vegas valley. The practice has no northern Nevada presence.
Neurologist
A neurologist is a physician who diagnoses and manages disorders of the brain, spinal cord, nerves and muscles. Adult outpatient neurology covers evaluation, diagnostic testing and long-term management, and does not include surgery.
What adults-only actually means for scope
Adult neurology is not general neurology with children excluded. The conditions, the presentations and the treatment decisions differ, which is why the boundary is drawn rather than assumed.
Where the practice starts and stops
Patients aged 18 and older. Outpatient, diagnostic and medical rather than surgical. A child or adolescent with headaches, episodes, a head injury or a developmental concern needs a paediatric neurologist, and the scheduling team says so on the call rather than after a visit. That matters because paediatric neurology involves different conditions, different medication considerations and different consent arrangements, none of which is a variation on adult practice.
The transition at eighteen
A young adult moving from paediatric care can be taken on, and the transfer works better arranged before the eighteenth birthday than after. Request the full paediatric record rather than a summary, particularly for epilepsy: which medications were tried and at what doses, which failed and why, seizure frequency over time, and the actual EEG reports rather than a statement that they were abnormal. Book before the last paediatric prescription runs out, because a supply gap is the commonest failure in that handover.
What adults present with
The full range is indexed on the conditions hub. In practice six entry points dominate: headache, dizziness, numbness or tingling, memory change, tremor, and episodes of altered awareness. Describing which of those you have is more useful than naming a suspected condition, because the practice routes by clinical question.
What is not provided at any age
No imaging suite, so magnetic resonance and computed tomography are coordinated externally. No infusion suite. No surgery, no interventional pain programme, and no emergency or inpatient care. Naming the boundary prevents a wasted appointment, which matters more the further you travel.
| Also considered | How it is distinguished |
|---|---|
| Neurosurgeon | Operates; a neurologist diagnoses and manages without surgery, and refers when an operation is indicated. |
| Primary care | Manages common presentations and refers when specialist evaluation or in-office testing is needed. |
| Pain management | Focuses on interventional pain treatment rather than neurological diagnosis. |
| Neuropsychology | Provides detailed cognitive testing that complements a neurological evaluation. |
How this practice handles it
01
What brings people in
A referral, a symptom needing explanation, or a need for neurological testing that a primary care office cannot perform.
02
What the evaluation settles
Which neurological process explains the symptoms, which in-office studies are indicated, and who in the practice should see you.
03
What you leave with
A neurological assessment, any indicated testing performed and interpreted in-house, and a written plan you can act on.
Two offices covering the valley
7751 W. Flamingo Road, Suite A-100, Las Vegas NV 89147, and 1691 W. Horizon Ridge Parkway, Suite 100, Henderson NV 89012, both fully equipped with all six in-office studies, on the locations page. Neither is a satellite, so capability is never a reason to prefer one over the other.
Nine clinicians, routed by question
Five board-certified neurologists and four advanced practice providers, on the providers page. Epilepsy and EEG interpretation go to the fellowship-trained epileptologist, nerve and muscle questions to the neuromuscular physicians, cerebrovascular questions to the medical director, multiple sclerosis continuity to the MS Certified Nurse, and general adult neurology to whoever can see you soonest.
Before you attend
Coverage, referral requirements and any prior authorisation are verified before the appointment rather than at check-in. Preparation guidance is on the new patient page.
The first 30, 60 and 90 days
Step 1
First visit
History and neurological examination, a review of records and prior imaging, and a decision on which studies are actually indicated. You leave with the plan, not just a referral.
Step 2
Within 30 days
Indicated in-office studies are performed and interpreted by the neurologist who ordered them, in our AANEM-accredited laboratories. Results are explained in plain language.
Step 3
60 to 90 days
Follow-up to judge whether the plan is working, adjust it, and coordinate with your referring clinician. Where a diagnosis needs time to confirm, this is where it is revisited.
Attending from Southern Nevada
Both offices are in the Las Vegas valley: 7751 W. Flamingo Road and 1691 W. Horizon Ridge Parkway in Henderson. There is no northern Nevada location. For most of Southern Nevada one of the two is a reasonable journey; further out, local care is generally the appropriate route rather than travelling in repeatedly.
Not sure whether we cover your question?
Describe the symptom and the team will tell you whether this is the right service.
The Bottom Line
Adults 18 and older across two Las Vegas valley offices. Knowing the boundary in advance prevents a wasted appointment, which matters more where specialist supply is thin.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you see children?
No. Clinical Neurology Specialists sees patients aged 18 and older. A child or adolescent with headaches, episodes, a head injury or a developmental concern needs a paediatric neurologist, and the scheduling team will say so on the call rather than after a visit. That is stated plainly rather than discovered at reception.
My child turns eighteen soon. How do we transfer?
Arrange it before the birthday rather than after. Request the full paediatric record rather than a summary, particularly for epilepsy, and book before the last paediatric prescription runs out, because a supply gap is the commonest failure in that handover. Book the adult appointment before the final paediatric one where you can.
What should I ask for from the paediatric practice?
Which medications were tried and at what doses, which failed and why, seizure frequency over time, and the actual EEG reports rather than a statement that they were abnormal. That history lets adult management continue rather than restart. Request all of it in writing rather than relying on a verbal summary from anyone.
What are the commonest reasons adults are referred?
Six entry points dominate: headache, dizziness, numbness or tingling, memory change, tremor, and episodes of altered awareness. Describing which you have is more useful than naming a suspected condition. Say which of those brought you in and roughly when it started, because the routing and the appointment length follow from that.
What is not provided at all?
No imaging suite, no infusion suite, no surgery, no interventional pain programme, and no emergency or inpatient care. Imaging and infusion therapy are coordinated with outside providers. Those boundaries are stated deliberately so you can go to the right place first rather than losing weeks finding out the hard way.
Where in Nevada are the offices?
Both are in the Las Vegas valley: 7751 W. Flamingo Road in Las Vegas and 1691 W. Horizon Ridge Parkway in Henderson. There is no northern Nevada location, and the north of the state is several hundred miles away, so for most of Nevada outside the valley local care is generally the appropriate route rather than travelling.
Is it worth travelling across Nevada for this?
For a single consultation sometimes; for anything needing repeated visits, rarely. Each of the six in-office studies requires attending in person, and ambulatory EEG needs two separate visits days apart. Describe the situation on the booking call and the team will say honestly whether the journey is justified in your case.
What should I do if my symptoms change before the appointment?
Call rather than wait, because the appointment can be brought forward or redirected. If symptoms become sudden or focal, that is no longer a scheduling question: sudden facial droop, one-sided weakness, difficulty speaking, vision loss, a headache peaking within seconds or a seizure over five minutes means calling 911. Do not drive yourself in that situation.
What is the single most useful thing I can do before attending?
Write a dated timeline of when symptoms began and how they changed, and assemble your medication list with doses including anything bought without a prescription. Request prior imaging and test reports now rather than later, because those requests take weeks. A first appointment that reaches a conclusion beats two that do not.
How does the practice decide who I see?
By clinical question rather than by request. Describing the symptom lets the soonest appropriate clinician be offered, whereas asking for a named subspecialist when a general appointment would answer the question is the commonest self-inflicted delay. Where subspecialty depth is genuinely needed, the routing finds it without you asking. Subspecialty slots are the thinnest part of the schedule.
