Child and Adolescent Neurology
Neurologists and neurosurgeons in Mayo Clinic's Division of Child and Adolescent Neurology diagnose and treat more than 500 neurological conditions, including many rare or complex disorders, in infants, children and teenagers.
Our neurologists and neurosurgeons are trained in treating infants, children and adolescents within subspecialized areas of brain and nervous system surgery, mental health conditions, sleep disorders, speech conditions, eye conditions, pain medicine, and physical medicine and rehabilitation among others.
Mayo Clinic's long history of pioneering medical research means pediatric patients have access to advanced diagnostic and treatment facilities and numerous groundbreaking clinical trials. Our integrated, multidisciplinary practice of doctors and health care professionals provide individualized care for each patient in brain and central nervous system cancers, cerebrovascular diseases, epilepsy, headache, and multiple sclerosis and autoimmune neurology.
