The Department of Neurology provides comprehensive diagnostic and therapeutic services for disorders involving the brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerves, and muscles.

Consistently ranked 8th globally by Newsweek's World’s Best Specialized Hospitals from 2021 to 2025, we deliver personalized neurological care through a multidisciplinary approach that integrates clinical excellence, research, and evidence-based treatments for patients from around the world.

Our sustained top-tier global ranking reflects our leadership in both clinical care and neuroscience research. As a core site for international clinical trials, we contribute to the advancement of treatments across a wide range of neurological diseases, including stroke, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, epilepsy, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and multiple sclerosis. We also provide dedicated programs for rare and treatment-resistant neurological disorders, supported by robust research infrastructure and specialized clinical protocols.

Our translational research efforts aim to apply scientific discoveries efficiently to patient care, ensuring timely access to emerging diagnostics and therapies. Our Neurological Emergency Team (NET) provides 24/7 expert coverage for acute neurological conditions, ensuring immediate and effective response throughout the hospital.

We operate a dedicated Neurology Intensive Care Unit (NRICU) equipped with advanced monitoring and treatment protocols and lead pioneering educational programs that set new standards in neurological intensive care. These integrated emergency and critical care services significantly improve patient outcomes in neurological crises.

Our comprehensive expertise covers the full spectrum of neurological disorders. In the field of neurodegenerative diseases, we provide advanced therapeutic protocols for Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and multiple sclerosis. These protocols include the use of the most current treatments including monoclonal antibody therapies.

Our cerebrovascular care program offers comprehensive stroke management through our dedicated Stroke Center, established in 2007 to provide optimal acute care and prevention strategies. We maintain particular expertise in movement disorders, delivered through specialized clinics for Parkinson's disease, dystonia, and deep brain stimulation procedures.

Our epilepsy and sleep medicine programs provide comprehensive care for refractory epilepsy and complex sleep disorders. Additionally, we offer advanced expertise in managing autoimmune neurological conditions through precise diagnostic capabilities and targeted treatment protocols. Our rare disease programs encompass genetic neurological disorders, hereditary conditions, and other intractable diseases. These efforts are supported by international collaborative research networks that contribute to advancing understanding and expanding treatment options for these challenging conditions.

Our commitment to global neurological care is reflected in our comprehensive international programs. We provide specialized medical services for international patients and support overseas medical student exchange and training programs that promote collaboration and knowledge sharing across borders. Our research partnerships extend across multiple countries, advancing scientific understanding of neurological conditions in diverse populations.

Through these multifaceted efforts, our Department of Neurology continues to lead global neurological care by delivering innovative treatments, conducting world-class research, and providing compassionate patient-centered care that serves individuals from all backgrounds and with diverse conditions.

Sleep Apnea

It happens due to the narrowed airway, causing a drop in breathing capacity and hypoxia. Subsequent sleep fragmentation, hypoxia, and sleep architecture disturb the nervous system, leading to cardiovascular complications and a decline in cognitive functions
