The Seizure Diagnostic Center at White Plains Hospital is the only adult Level 4 Specialized Epilepsy Center in the region, as rated by the National Association of Epilepsy Centers (NAEC).
The Level 4 designation is applied to hospitals and medical centers that provide the more complex forms of intensive neuro-diagnostics monitoring, as well extensive medical, neuropsychological and psychosocial treatment, according to the NAEC. Level 4 centers also offer a complete evaluation for epilepsy surgery, including intracranial electrodes, and provide a broad range of surgical procedures for epilepsy.
Our multidisciplinary team is comprised of neurologists specializing in epilepsy, neurosurgeons, neuropsychologists, nurse clinicians, pharmacologists, psychiatrists, educational counselors, social workers and technologists.
We evaluate each patient with state-of-the-art technology to provide the basis for accurate assessments of various seizure disorders. We also confer with the patient’s personal physician regarding the most promising treatment options.
