Neurology is a branch of medicine dealing with disorders of the nervous system. Neurologists are licensed medical specialists who diagnose and treat disorders that affect the brain, spinal cord, nerves, and muscles of patients. They examine a patient’s mental and physical status, conduct medical tests and scans, and evaluate the results to diagnose and treat the patient.

Neurophysiology is a discipline within the health sciences that deals with the measurement and assessment of nervous system function, rather than the anatomy of the nervous system. This field helps to diagnose and monitor the progress of nervous disorders. Clinical neurophysiologists investigate and diagnose disorders of the nervous system, including a range of conditions affecting the functioning of the muscles (neuromuscular disease).

When she is not busy in the office, Dr. Neidari spends time with her family traveling, dancing, and volunteering at under-served communities. She is the mother of three beautiful girls.
