Epilepsy Neuromodulation Clinic

Overview

The aim of the clinic is to provide specialised care for people with epilepsy who are being evaluated for or receiving vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) or deep brain stimulation (DBS) therapies. VNS and DBS are examples of what we call \"neuromodulation therapies\", hence the name of the clinic.\n\nThe main services we provide are:\n\n- Evaluation of people with epilepsy who are considering neuromodulation therapies (VNS or DBS)\n- Post-operative programming of VNS and DBS devices\n- Optimisation, troubleshooting, and long-term follow-up for VNS and DBS therapies\n\nThe clinic does not replace patients' usual neurologist or epilepsy specialist, who will continue to see them as normal, and will manage their medication and general epilepsy care.

Exclusion Criteria

We can not use referrals that are not addressed to our program and do not have a specialist listed.
