Multiple Sclerosis is a long-term neurological condition in which the immune system mistakenly attacks the protective covering of nerves, leading to a wide range of symptoms such as fatigue, brain fog, weakness, numbness, and visual changes. Early diagnosis and individualised treatment can greatly reduce relapses, slow disease progression, and support patients in maintaining quality of life.
Chronic migraines and frequent headaches can significantly impact daily functioning, work, and wellbeing. Dr Driver can help identify triggers, confirm the diagnosis, and provide tailored treatment options—ranging from preventative medications to injectable therapies and lifestyle strategies—to reduce the frequency and severity of symptoms.
Epilepsy is a condition characterised by recurrent seizures caused by abnormal electrical activity in the brain. With a thorough assessment and the right treatment plan, many people achieve excellent seizure control. Management may include medication, lifestyle guidance, and ongoing monitoring to help patients live safely and confidently.
A stroke occurs when blood flow to part of the brain is disrupted, causing sudden neurological symptoms such as weakness, difficulty speaking, or vision changes. After the acute emergency phase, specialist care focuses on recovery, prevention of future strokes, and long-term management of risk factors to improve outcomes and independence.
Chronic neurological pain can arise from nerve damage, central nervous system conditions, or long-standing musculoskeletal issues. Dr Driver helps determine the underlying cause and develops an evidence-based treatment plan that may include medication, nerve-targeted therapies, and multidisciplinary support to improve daily comfort and function.
Neuropathy affects the peripheral nerves and can cause tingling, burning pain, numbness, or weakness, often in the hands and feet. Through testing and careful evaluation, the neurologist identifies the cause—such as diabetes, autoimmune disease, or vitamin deficiencies—and recommends targeted treatments to reduce symptoms and prevent progression.
Myasthenia Gravis is an autoimmune condition that leads to fluctuating muscle weakness, commonly affecting the eyes, face, throat, and limbs. With modern therapies, symptoms can be well controlled. Specialist care focuses on accurate diagnosis, immunotherapy, and long-term monitoring to maintain strength and energy levels.
Parkinson’s Disease is a progressive neurological disorder that affects movement, causing tremor, stiffness, and slowness. Treatment is personalised and may include medication, therapy, and lifestyle strategies to support mobility and independence. Regular neurological review helps optimise symptom control as the condition changes over time.
Functional Neurological Disorder involves real neurological symptoms—such as weakness, tremor, sensory changes, or seizures—that arise from a problem with how the brain functions rather than structural damage. Diagnosis is made through positive clinical signs. Treatment focuses on education, physiotherapy, psychological support, and strategies to retrain normal neurological pathways.
