If your referring physician is concerned that your symptoms may be of a neurological concern,
then he or she may request a specialized opinion. A neurological consultation consists of a
history of your medical background, full assessment of your issues and special attention to your
present problems. The neurological examination will involve tests of vision, strength,
coordination, reflexes and sensation. This exam will enable the neurologist to locate where in
the nervous system your problem exists. The examination may indicate that certain tests are
required. These tests are necessary to help the neurologist confirm a diagnosis which may lead
to a specific treatment or therapy.
