When a child has frequent headaches, seizures or a short attention span it could be the sign of a problem with his or her nervous system. At the Division of Child Neurology and Developmental Medicine at Atlantic Health Children’s Health, our pediatric neurologists provide comprehensive care for these patients and educate parents on how to successfully manage their child’s disease.

Family-centered care

Our family-centered approach ensures the complex nature of neurological conditions is explained to parents so they fully understand and can become an integral part of the care team.
