Your appointment

What to expect from a neurological consultation

The exact structure of an appointment depends on your symptoms and reason for referral, but the aim is to build a clear clinical picture before deciding whether further investigation or treatment is required.

Clinical history

Understanding your symptoms

Dr Manfredonia will take a detailed history of the symptoms, their timing, progression and effect on daily life, alongside relevant medical history.

Assessment

Neurological examination

Where appropriate, a focused neurological examination helps identify signs that may clarify the likely cause of symptoms.

Next steps

Investigation and management

Existing scans and reports can be reviewed and further investigations, including neurophysiology, may be recommended where clinically useful.

Midland Health provides planned private outpatient care

The clinic is not an emergency neurological service. Sudden facial weakness, new speech disturbance, severe acute weakness, prolonged seizure, collapse or other rapidly developing neurological symptoms may require urgent NHS assessment or emergency care. Call 999 when appropriate.
