Where Innovation and Care Come Together
At Stanford Health Care Neuroscience, our Circle of Care approach ensures an unwavering focus on you and your quality of life. You have a team of renowned neurologists, neurosurgeons, and interventional neuroradiologists working together to meet your unique needs. As leaders in neurological care and research, we translate innovations into advanced treatments for our patients and people worldwide. We offer the latest diagnostics, treatments, and clinical trials. And our convenient locations and wide range of support services—designed to help you and your caregiver navigate your condition—make it easy for you to get the care you deserve.
Your Circle of Care
A diagnosis of a neurological condition—and the changes it may bring—can be unsettling. We offer you and your caregivers the personalized support you need at every step. Your team listens to you and develops a plan for your situation. And you’ll work with the same team from diagnosis throughout treatment, so we can get to know you and your needs.
Innovation Through Clinical Research
Stanford Health Care Neuroscience actively participates in groundbreaking research and clinical trials to evaluate new and better ways to diagnose, treat, and manage neurological disorders. Participating in a trial may give you access to experimental therapies that are not available otherwise. We also partner with the Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute to better understand the brain, develop new treatments for brain disorders, and promote brain health.
PARTNERING FOR EXCELLENCE
Stanford Health Care Neuroscience proudly collaborates with the Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute to unlock the mysteries of the brain and human behavior.
Access to Excellence
We make access to care as simple as possible. We anticipate what you need and provide support when you need it. Our network of locations puts our services within your reach. User-friendly digital health tools help you stay connected with your care team. We accept most insurance plans and offer discounted transportation, short-stay options, and international travel and translation services. We help make sense of the details, so you can make decisions that are right for you.
