“Wahlarzt-Ordination” means there are no contracts between us and any health insurance company. So you have to pay us directly and send the bill to your health insurance company. You have to know that in most cases you will not be refunded 100% by a general health insurance.
Our team has plenty of time for patients – more time than other doctors can afford …
that’s why a “Wahlarzt-Ordination” might be a little more expensive.
We offer you the broad experience spectrum of a neurological practice.
“Neurological problems” can manifest themselves as:
Our team will be happy to advise and to furthermore help you with frequent problems, such as carpal tunnel syndrome, polyneuropathy and stroke prophylaxis.
In addition to the very essential preliminary conversation and neurological examination, our practice team have experience with the following diagnostic tools:
Electroneurography (ENG) and Electromyography (EMG)
Electroneurography (ENG) uses current stimuli to measure nerve function. Nerve conduction velocity (NLG) and amplitude are relevant for assessment.
Electromyography (EMG) uses needle electrodes to “listen inside” the muscle.
Electroencephalography (EEG)
Electroencephalography (EEG) is used to record “brain waves.” For example, localized or generalized slowing or increased cerebral excitability can be detected. Such controls are also necessary for the treatment of epilepsy.
Doppler-/Duplexsonography
This ultrasound procedure can gently and effectively assess the neck arteries. This information is also relevant in the context of stroke prevention.
Polygraphy (outpatient sleep screening)
The sleep screening device can be taken home, so that the examination takes place in the bed at home. Since sleep laboratories often have long waiting times, this method can provide initial indications and help explain the cause of daytime sleepiness.
First of all: suddenly emerging, acute neurological symptoms are to be treated as an emergency! Visit the next hospital immediately!
