Diagnostics and Treatment

Advanced Neurological Diagnostic & Treatment 

We offer specialized testing and treatment services that identify the root cause of your symptoms and guide effective care.

NCS / EMG (neuromuscular testing)

These tests help evaluate nerve and muscle function to identify conditions affecting strength, sensation, movement, or pain.

EEG and ambulatory EEG

EEG testing records brain activity and can help detect abnormal electrical patterns related to seizures, fainting episodes, or other neurological concerns.

Skin biopsy for small fiber neuropathy

A skin biopsy can help diagnose small fiber neuropathy by evaluating the tiny nerve fibers that may contribute to burning, tingling, or unexplained nerve pain.

Botox therapy for neurological conditions

Botox therapy may be used to help manage neurological symptoms such as chronic migraine, muscle stiffness, spasms, or certain movement disorders.

Neurocognitive testing

Neurocognitive testing helps assess memory, attention, language, processing speed, and other thinking skills to better understand cognitive changes.

TeleHealth

TeleHealth visits allow patients to meet with their neurology provider virtually for select consultations, follow-ups, and ongoing care needs.

I had an exceptional experience at this clinic. From the moment I called in, the receptionist was able to get me in promptly. On the appointment date, The front desk was welcoming and kind, and the entire staff made me feel comfortable right away. Dr. Tian was incredibly professional, thorough, and attentive taking the time to explain everything and truly listen.

What stood out most was the character of the team. It’s rare to find a place where you feel both cared for and respected, and this clinic absolutely delivers that. The office itself is beautiful, clean, and very inviting, which made the whole experience even more pleasant.

I honestly can’t say enough good things this was one of the best appointments I’ve had in a long time.

I recently had a not-so-pleasant experience with my former neurologist, but my visit to my new neurologist’s office was completely different—in the best way. From the moment I arrived, the front desk staff was professional, polite, and welcoming. I didn’t have to wait long before being seen, and when I was brought into the exam room, they already had my records pulled up and ready.

The doctor was very thorough in reviewing the reasons for my visit. Although I received a diagnosis that I wasn’t particularly happy about—but had been expecting—the way it was explained made all the difference. The doctor took the time to deliver it thoughtfully, with great detail and care. My wife and daughter were present as well, and they too were very impressed with his professionalism and compassion.

I definitely will recommend this office.
