I had a doctor's appointment today.Tomorrow I'll be right back down there to see my case manager and get help with all of those things.One thing I love to do is handle business.Thanks u very much for the information

Thank you very much.Its very different here in Philadelphia.I've been dealing with Epilepsy for 20yrs and never even heard of an Epileptologist.I had to do my own searching around to find out what I heard today.

CaliphBradham , you may want try and call your local Epilepsy Foundation . It’s very possible that there maybe an Epileptologist at you the university school

When I was switched neurologist to Epileptologists , I noticed that the Epileptologist was more knowledgeable about Epilepsy, compared to my regular Neurologist. My Dr. was able to find more tha one path to try with me . Trying different meds , inpatient EEG brain surgery , trying alternative treatments ( VNS, RNS and DBS and ect ) and ect.

The major difference is a Neurologist will normally specialize in a few different areas whereas a Epileptologist is a specialist for Epilepsy and that's it. If you get a good Neurologist, then you should be ok but sometimes a Epileptologist can be warranted. It also depends on how they system works. I know that in Australia where I am in most cases even in the public system behind the scenes there will be a Epileptologist available if needed but they mainly only do behind the scenes work. You can still see one, but it would only be in very rare cases.
