A therapeutic approach based on availability

 All neurologists practicing in our unit have been selected through a rigorous process for their skills in all areas of general neurology.  Their accreditation is reviewed every two years.

Each patient is under the sole responsibility of one of the doctors in our unit. The doctor coordinates all steps in the hospitalization process with healthcare personnel (admission, observation, prescriptions, treatments, diagnosis and notification of diagnosis, relationships with support persons, discharge or transfer process, hospitalization report, discharge orders, and relationship with the referring physician).

Our doctors are committed to being present and reachable: we make rounds to examine our patients every day, with on-going care management provided by the neurologists 24/7 every day of the year. Patients can reach their doctors at any time.
