Epilepsy

The UHealth Comprehensive Epilepsy Center at the Miller School of Medicine is the oldest comprehensive epilepsy center in South Florida, with a distinguished history of excellence.

Our first mission is to provide comprehensive evaluations and advanced treatments for adult and pediatric patients with new-onset, chronic, and treatment-resistant epilepsy. Our goal is to achieve seizure freedom while addressing the medical, neurological, psychiatric, and cognitive comorbidities often associated with epilepsy.

Our second mission is to educate the next generation of epilepsy specialists. We train medical students, neurology residents, epilepsy and clinical neurophysiology fellows, as well as neuropsychology residents and fellows.

Our third mission is to advance research in the pharmacologic, surgical, and psychiatric aspects of epilepsy, driving innovation to improve treatment options and patient outcomes.

The Comprehensive Epilepsy Center has been designated a Level IV center by the National Association of Epilepsy Centers, the highest designation for epilepsy care, recognizing our expertise in providing the most advanced diagnostic and therapeutic options for all forms of epilepsy.
