Question 1: What should I bring to my first neurology consultation?
Answer: Please bring all previous brain or spine imaging (MRI/CT scans) and reports, current medication lists, and any past discharge summaries. A brief timeline of your symptoms is also helpful. Being prepared helps ensure an accurate diagnosis during your 45-60 minute initial evaluation.
Question 2: What is the difference between a Neurologist and a Neurosurgeon?
Answer: A neurologist, like Dr. Aditya Gudhate, specializes in diagnosing and treating brain and nerve disorders using medical management, injections, and therapies. A neurosurgeon primarily treats neurological conditions through surgical intervention. Most patients start with a neurologist to determine if their condition requires surgery or medical treatment.
Question 3: Do you provide emergency neurology services or hospital admissions?
Answer: Yes. Dr. Gudhate is attached to several major hospitals in Mumbai, including Siddhachal Hospitals and HCG Khubchandani Cancer Hospital. For acute conditions like strokes or severe seizures, patients can be admitted under his care for inpatient management and advanced neuro-imaging.
Question 4: Are Nerve Conduction Studies (NCS) and EMG done at the clinic?
Answer: Yes, specialized neuro-diagnostic tests like NCS and EMG are available. These tests are essential for diagnosing conditions like peripheral neuropathy, carpal tunnel syndrome, and muscle disorders. Appointments for these procedures should be booked in advance to ensure dedicated time for the study.
Question 5: How can I book an appointment for Dadar or Prabhadevi?
Answer: Appointments can be booked via WhatsApp or the EkaCare platform. Dr. Gudhate consults at Procare Neurology (Prabhadevi) daily from 3-6 PM and at Park Polyclinic (Dadar West) on Wednesdays and Fridays from 5-7 PM. Prior appointment is mandatory for all locations.
