Neurological Care for Your Brain, Spine and Nerves

Your brain is the most complex organ in your body. That's why CHRISTUS Health believes the care it receives must be comprehensive, detailed, and centered on a highly effective approach to managing and treating disease.

CHRISTUS Health neurologists are physicians who specialize in diagnosing and treating disorders of the central nervous system—the brain, spinal cord, and nerves. They have expert knowledge of your body's neurological structures, allowing them to diagnose, locate, and treat a wide range of nervous system disorders. A subspecialty of neurology, neuromuscular disorders, focuses on the science, evaluation, and management of conditions affecting your peripheral nerves, neuromuscular junctions, and muscles.
