Kingsbridge Private Hospital can arrange Neurology consultations for the investigation and treatment of patients with symptoms of epilepsy, headache, Parkinson's disease, stroke and multiple sclerosis.
Neurology, the branch of medicine concerned with the study and treatment of disorders of the nervous system, is a field that continuously pushes the boundaries of our understanding of the human brain. From the intricate workings of neurons to the complexities of brain functions, neurology delves deep into the mysteries of the nervous system.
At the core of neurology lies the fundamental understanding of the nervous system. The nervous system is divided into two main parts: the central nervous system (CNS), consisting of the brain and spinal cord, and the peripheral nervous system (PNS), comprising the nerves that connect the CNS to the rest of the body. Neurologists study the structure and function of these components, seeking insights into how they interact to regulate everything from basic bodily functions to complex cognitive processes.
Neurons, the building blocks of the nervous system, play a pivotal role in transmitting electrical and chemical signals throughout the body. These specialised cells communicate with each other through synaptic connections, forming intricate neural networks that underpin our thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. Understanding the mechanisms governing neuronal communication is essential for deciphering the mysteries of the brain and developing treatments for neurological disorders.
Neurology encompasses a wide range of conditions, from common ailments like headaches and neuropathies to more complex disorders such as epilepsy, Alzheimer's disease, and Parkinson's disease. Each disorder presents unique challenges, requiring a nuanced understanding of its underlying causes and mechanisms.
For example, Alzheimer's disease, a progressive neurodegenerative disorder, is characterised by the accumulation of abnormal protein deposits in the brain, leading to cognitive decline and memory loss. Researchers are investigating various factors, including genetics, lifestyle, and environmental influences, to unravel the complexities of this devastating condition and develop effective treatments.
Similarly, Parkinson's disease, a movement disorder caused by the degeneration of dopamine-producing neurons in the brain, poses significant challenges for both patients and clinicians. While treatments like medication and deep brain stimulation can help alleviate symptoms, ongoing research aims to uncover novel therapeutic approaches, such as gene therapy and stem cell transplantation, to halt or reverse the progression of the disease.
Advancements in technology have revolutionised the field of neurology, providing researchers with powerful tools to explore the inner workings of the brain in unprecedented detail. Techniques such as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), electroencephalography (EEG), and optogenetics enable scientists to observe brain activity in real-time, offering valuable insights into neural circuits and brain function.
Moreover, the emergence of neuroimaging techniques has transformed the diagnosis and treatment of neurological disorders, allowing for earlier detection and more targeted interventions. From imaging biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease to functional connectivity analyses in epilepsy, neuroimaging has become an indispensable tool in the neurologist's arsenal, paving the way for personalized medicine approaches tailored to each patient's unique neurobiology.

Patient Testimonials
"I am extremely happy with the treatment, and with the standard of care I have received. There is no doubt as to whether this treatment is highly effective. I have had several cosmetic surgeries (although not on my face) but can say in comparing the results of the Spring Thread procedure with other less invasive treatments, the results are more in keeping with the surgical procedures I have had." Spring Thread Patient Review, Cosmetech at Kingsbridge Patient
"I had surgery here at the weekend and I can't recommend this place highly enough. They took great care of me and kept me at ease throughout my stay. The staff were brilliant, really friendly and chatted away and the food was top class. This hospital was better than any hotel I wonder could I book a weekend away in it when I fully recover?" Mr McGinnity, Kingsbridge Patient
"EXCELLENT - Had surgery today under the very caring Dr Stewart and her team. I cannot thank her enough for all she’s done for me over the past few months. Everything was explained to me in detail and all my care was considerate, professional and compassionate.

I arrived at 8.35am, taken to the ward at 8.45am (my admission time was 9am). Tended to by a lovely Nurse. Dr Roger Wilson spoke to me around 9.45am, in Theatre for 10am, recovery for 11.10am and now currently back on ward. These guys are awesome. From the consultant to anaesthetist to nurses to cater assistants. Absolutely brilliant. Thank you so much. I am so grateful to everyone at Kingsbridge for the service."

"Can’t praise Kingsbridge Private Hospital enough!! I had an operation a couple of weeks ago and I was so well looked after. My surgeon Mr Rashid was fantastic, and the nursing staff was also fabulous. I found they communicated very well to each other, so everyone knew when my meds were due, my allergies etc. They were so kind, so lovely, constantly checked to see how I was i.e. my temperature etc. The food was fabulous and the catering staff very helpful having had an operation were very happy to accommodate ... Thank you to all!" Ms Cheong, Kingsbridge Patient
"Staff very friendly and very efficient. Surgeon and surgery top class. Big thanks to the Nurses for all their care and patience" Mr Howard, Kingsbridge Patient
"I was in your facility yesterday for a day procedure (operation on my left arm). I wanted to write and express how impressed I was with the facilities and more importantly the staff on the Ward.
Everyone was excellent, and I mean excellent, i don't normally write congratulatory e-mails so this is high praise in my view. The Senior nurse was excellent, as was the Theatre nurse and the anaesthetist. Even the assistants that helped with catering and other duties. All came together to form a great impression of the establishment." Jason Carpal Tunnel Surgery, Kingsbridge Patient
"Very well satisfied with everyone at my appointment - firstly with reception who were very friendly and helpful, secondly with Mr Cusick who took his time to explain everything to me and finally One2One with Rose who organised the dates for my pre op and operation. I would highly recommend Kingsbridge Private Hospital." Patient Review, Orthopaedic Clinic
"When I attended Kingsbridge Private Hospital on the 14th May for a knee replacement the care I got was fantastic from entering the door until I was discharged on the 16th May. The surgeon Mr Laurence Cusick and his team was absolutely fantastic, the nurses and the rest of the team you couldn’t ask for better and the food was very good" Paitent Review , Knee Replacement Clinic
"My first knee replacement was October 2023, and this was done the manual way. The pre and post op was fantastic for both! There was almost no pain in my hip or rest of my body after the second surgery which was a huge difference compared to my first knee. I was able to continue my physio as normal and I noticed I had more movement a lot sooner with my second knee, the robotic assisted. I could not thank the staff enough and Mr McCaffrey for how kind and understanding, attentive they were. From the beginning, I felt heard, and understood. The nurses, the caterers, the physios, the doctors, pharmacists, it is top class care! Overall, in summary, I would highly recommend going for robotic assisted. It’s still a serious surgery, so pain is to be expected and recovery is not going to be rosy, but it is worth it. The relief I have now in both knees, walking without that bone-on-bone pain, I am grateful. And the robotic assisted was a noticeably less painful, faster recovery.
