Meet the Downtown Chicago Epilepsy Team

Our center has specialists with a particular interest in treating patients with autoimmune or genetic seizure disorders and patients interested in surgery or device treatment. We also address the specific challenges of women of childbearing age facing contraceptive and pregnancy choices. We collaborate closely with the Lou and Jean Malnati Brain Tumor Institute* to optimize seizure management.

We also offer the only Women's Epilepsy Program in Illinois.
