Pediatric Neurology
At Yale Medicine we care for infants, children, teens, and young adults with conditions that affect the brain, spinal cord, nerves, and muscles. Our pediatric neurologists are specially trained to understand how neurological conditions affect growing children — and how to support the whole family along the way. We provide compassionate, child-friendly, family-centered care, taking the time to listen, explain things clearly, and partner with you to create the best plan for your child.
