About William Lujan

Few résumés in Nevada neurology read like William Lujan's: university medical training, eight years as a United States Air Force physician on two continents, more than two decades of clinical neurology across military and civilian practice, and a personal history rooted in the desert Southwest he serves. Dr. Lujan is board-certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology, a member of the American Academy of Neurology, and has been practising clinical neurology for more than 23 years.

His foundation was built in Arizona: a bachelor's degree in general biology from the University of Arizona, followed by his medical degree from the same institution. He then served eight years in the United States Air Force. His military medical training began at Wilford Hall Medical Center in San Antonio, Texas — the Air Force's flagship medical centre — where he completed both his internal medicine internship and his neurology residency. The Air Force then stationed him as a neurologist at RAF Lakenheath in England for three years, caring for service members and their families overseas, before he completed his service at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio.

Military neurology demands a particular versatility: the physician must handle whatever presents, decisively, often without subspecialty backup. That versatility became the signature of his career. Returning to civilian life, Dr. Lujan practised neurology in private practice in Tucson, Arizona, before relocating to Las Vegas and joining Clinical Neurology Specialists as a full-time staff neurologist.

His practice encompasses headache and migraine, multiple sclerosis, diseases of the peripheral nervous system, epilepsy, stroke, memory disorders, and movement disorders including tremor and Parkinson's disease. Breadth like this matters more than it sounds: the patient with numb hands may have neuropathy, a pinched cervical nerve or early MS, and the physician who has spent 23 years seeing all of it is the one who sorts it correctly the first time.

Frequently Asked Questions

About William Lujan

Training, scope of practice, and how to book.

What does Dr. Lujan treat?
He is a general neurologist in the fullest sense, and his practice covers headache and migraine, multiple sclerosis, diseases of the peripheral nervous system, epilepsy, stroke, memory disorders, and movement disorders including tremor and Parkinson's disease. He also performs electromyography in the practice's accredited laboratories.
What is his military background?
Dr. Lujan served eight years in the United States Air Force. His medical training was at Wilford Hall Medical Center in San Antonio, the Air Force's flagship medical centre, where he completed both his internal medicine internship and neurology residency. He was then stationed as a neurologist at RAF Lakenheath in England for three years.
How long has he been practising?
More than 23 years in clinical neurology, across both military and civilian practice. Military neurology in particular demands versatility, because the physician has to handle whatever presents, often without subspecialty backup close at hand — and that breadth became the defining feature of his career.
Where did he train?
He earned a bachelor's degree in general biology and his medical degree, both from the University of Arizona. His internship and neurology residency were completed at Wilford Hall Medical Center in San Antonio, Texas, during his Air Force service, and he practised privately in Tucson before relocating to Las Vegas.
Is he a good fit if I do not know what is wrong?
That is precisely the case for a general neurologist. Neurological symptoms rarely arrive pre-sorted, and the patient with numb hands may have neuropathy, a pinched cervical nerve or early MS. A physician who has seen all of it across 23 years is the one most likely to sort it correctly the first time.
Which office does he see patients at?
Both the Las Vegas and Henderson offices, each carrying the full set of six in-office studies. Both hold the same records, so alternating between them restarts nothing. It is worth asking at booking which has earlier availability, since that changes between the two week to week.

Emergency & crisis resources: Clinical Neurology Specialists is not an emergency service. For stroke symptoms, a seizure lasting more than five minutes or any medical emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. For a mental health crisis, call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline).
