An Epilepsy Center
An Epilepsy Center offers state-of-the-art diagnostic tools and tests to locate the origin of seizures and determine which medication or treatment types will work best for seizures. When medications fail, surgical options are available, including minimally invasive laser ablation and neuromodulation.
If seizures continue despite treatment for more than one year or after the trial of two medications, seek advanced care offered at an Epilepsy Center.
