What Is Veterinary Neurology?

Neurology deals with the parts of the body responsible for balance, movement, coordination, and sensory function.

When something goes wrong in the nervous system, pets may show weakness, tremors, seizures, difficulty walking, or changes in behavior.

Our goal is to identify the underlying cause and help restore as much comfort and function as possible.

Common Neurological Conditions We Evaluate:

  • Seizures and epilepsy
  • Vestibular disease (inner ear imbalance)
  • Intervertebral disc disease (IVDD)
  • Spinal cord compression
  • Neuromuscular disorders
  • Head trauma
  • Nerve paralysis or weakness

If your pet is stumbling, falling, circling, shaking, or suddenly acting confused, they should be evaluated promptly.
