Neurological diseases and nervous system disorders affect how the entire body works. When something goes wrong with one part of the central nervous system – brain, spinal cord, or nerves – there can be trouble moving, speaking, swallowing, breathing or learning. Problems with memory, senses or mood can also occur. To learn more about some of the key services Prevea neurology specializes in, please visit: https://www.prevea.com/medical-services/neurology
