Comprehensive Epilepsy Program

Renown’s epilepsy program is recognized by the National Association of Epilepsy Centers, and is the only Level III epilepsy center in northern Nevada. The Epilepsy Program offers the latest treatments for diagnosing and treating epilepsy. The program’s goal is to prevent seizures and enable patients to lead typical, active lives. We provide advanced video brain wave (EEG) testing by skilled, registered technologists. This testing is safe, painless, and determines if there is any irregular electrical brain activity, which may cause seizures. Our comprehensive epilepsy program also specializes in:

Consultation for epilepsy and EEG monitoring
Pregnancy planning and monitoring for women with epilepsy
Episodic loss of awareness in the elderly
Driving privilege requirements
Education for those living with seizures
