THE ST. LUKE'S CENTER FOR NEUROSCIENCE: A COMPREHENSIVE
REGIONAL DESTINATION FOR NEUROLOGICAL CARE 6
Reflecting an institutional commitment to clinical integration, the St. Luke's Center for
Neuroscience unites the expertise of neurosurgeons, neurologists, physical therapists
and other medical professionals to provide advanced care for complex brain and spine
disorders. The Center's fellowship-trained physicians are equipped to handle a broad
spectrum of neurological conditions.
