Extraordinary advances are being made in the treatment of injuries and illnesses affecting the brain, spine and nervous system—and most of those advances are available at Mission's Neurosciences Institute. Here, neurologists and neurosurgeons on staff, neuro nurses, and ancillary staff from areas such as physical and speech therapy, take a team approach to plan and carry out a program of care based on each patient's needs and preferences.
