General Practitioners

Headaches
Stroke Rehabilitation
Partnering with many of Tucson’s local hospitals, we offer an extraordinary continuum of stroke care that begins in the emergency room and continues in the outpatient setting.
Sleep Disorders
Emergency Care
The Center for Neurosciences specializes in the acute and long-term management of stroke. Our team directs the stroke program at Tucson Medical Center and St. Mary’s Hospital, where we participate in a rapid response emergency room program to ensure all patients get expert care as quickly as possible.
Infectious Diseases
The Center for Neurosciences works to be prepared for all types of infectious diseases such as flu or coronavirus. We want you to know more about our proactive steps to prepare. As part of these steps, we are asking that you please avoid bringing other people with you to your appointment unless it is necessary.

Neurology
The Center for Neurosciences Inpatient Neurology Program consists of physicians and providers who care for hospitalized patients with (or at risk for) neurological disorders and disease. We are a rapidly growing group focused on managing acute neurological illness in the hospital setting.
Autism
Multiple Sclerosis
The Center for Neurosciences’ Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Center provides comprehensive, collaborative care to our MS patients. Our team works together to help patients manage the disease as well as the impact it can have on daily life.
Epilepsy
To provide the full range of care to adults and children with epilepsy, the Center for Neurosciences has created a comprehensive Epilepsy Center, which allows for close coordination among adult neurologists, pediatric neurologists, neurosurgeons and nurse practitioners.

MRI
In order to provide a second opinion, we require a completed External Imaging Review Form, a pathology report and two MRI imaging studies provided on a CD (or film). We prefer two imaging studies with different dates of service, however, we will review your information if you have only had one MRI study. This information should be sent to the Center for Neurosciences through a carrier that provides tracking (such as FedEx or UPS). Our address is: Center for Neurosciences, 2450 E. River Road, Tucson, AZ 85718, Attn: Brain Tumor Center/External Imaging Review.
X-Rays
Computed Tomography
With IMRT, radiation dose conforms very precisely to the three-dimensional shape of the tumor, which maximizes the effectiveness of treatment, and minimizes side effects. Treatment is carefully planned by using 3-D Computed Tomography (CT) or Magnetic Resonance Images (MRI) of the patient in conjunction with computerized dose calculations to determine the dose intensity pattern that will best conform to the tumor shape.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is the use of one drug or a combination of drugs to kill cancer cells. In malignant brain tumors, chemotherapy is typically used after surgery to kill any remaining cancer cells. The chemotherapy used to treat the cancer depends on the type and stage of the cancer. Chemotherapy is given in an outpatient setting. It can sometimes be taken by mouth or may be given intravenously.
Radiation Therapy
Image Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT) is the use of frequent imaging during a course of radiation therapy to improve the precision and accuracy of the delivery of radiation.
Radiation Oncology
The successful diagnosis and management of tumors depends on the collaborative effort of several different specialties including neurosurgery, radiation oncology, neuro-oncology, neuropathology and neuroradiology. Our interdisciplinary team conducts weekly meetings devoted entirely to reviewing the progress of patients with tumors. This ensures each patient has the most innovative and effective treatment plan. We then work with each patient to help them fully understand the risks and benefits of the recommended treatment.

Sciatica
Injection therapy uses a needle to inject a pain reliever or anti-inflammatory medication into the spine, or other areas of the body, to treat pain related to herniated discs, sciatica, spinal stenosis and many other painful conditions.
