Neurologists are highly trained clinicians capable of diagnosing complex conditions through detailed history and physical examination, including testing of mental status, vision, speech, strength, sensation, coordination, reflexes, and gait.

Some common neurologic tests used to complete the evaluation include:

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)

Electroencephalography (EEG)

Nerve conduction studies and electromyography (NCS/EMG)
