Neurologist Gdansk

The nervous system is responsible for all key body functions – it controls movement, sensation, memory, emotions, and the functioning of internal organs. When its function is disrupted, symptoms can range from headaches and dizziness to problems with memory, balance, and movement.

At Mediss Medical, we provide comprehensive neurological care for people struggling with both acute symptoms and chronic illnesses. We prioritize accurate diagnosis, a personalized approach, and treatment based on current medical standards.

Diseases of the Central and Peripheral Nervous System – Diagnosis, Symptoms and Treatment

Neurological disorders may affect both the brain and spinal cord as well as peripheral nerves. Their symptoms are often non-specific and may develop gradually. They can include pain, sensory disturbances, memory problems, as well as difficulties with movement and everyday activities. Accurate and timely neurological diagnosis allows for early identification of the cause of symptoms and implementation of effective treatment, which is crucial for slowing disease progression and improving the patient’s quality of life.

What conditions and symptoms do we treat?

In our neurology clinic, we diagnose and treat a wide range of central and peripheral nervous system disorders, including:

  • headaches and dizziness (migraines, tension-type headaches)
  • spinal disorders and radicular syndromes (e.g. sciatica)
  • chronic pain syndromes
  • cerebrovascular diseases (including post-stroke conditions)
  • memory and concentration disorders
  • dementia syndromes
  • neuromuscular disorders (e.g. polyneuropathies)
  • neurological sleep disorders
  • other conditions requiring neurological consultation

Movement disorders and neurodegenerative diseases – specialist care

One of the key areas of our practice is the diagnosis and treatment of movement disorders and neurodegenerative diseases, which are often progressive and require precise diagnostics and long-term care.

We treat, among others:

  • tremor (e.g. essential tremor and other types)
  • dystonia – involuntary muscle contractions
  • ataxia – coordination disorders
  • spasticity – increased muscle tone
  • tics
  • chorea and other involuntary movements
  • restless legs syndrome
  • other neurological movement disorders

Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment help reduce symptom severity and improve patients’ daily functioning.

When should you see a neurologist?

A neurological consultation is recommended if you experience:

  • chronic headaches – especially if they are recurrent, worsening over time, or sudden and severe
  • sensory disturbances – such as tingling, numbness, or loss of sensation in specific areas
  • problems with coordination and balance – difficulty walking, frequent falls, or dizziness
  • muscle weakness – sudden loss of strength in the limbs affecting daily activities
  • seizures or epileptic episodes – even a single episode requires neurological evaluation
  • vision, hearing, or speech disturbances – unexplained changes in vision, hearing loss, or speech difficulties
  • memory and concentration problems – especially when accompanied by other neurological symptoms
  • limb tremors or tics – occurring at rest or during movement
  • recurrent fainting or loss of consciousness – which may indicate nervous system disorders

Any concerning symptoms should be evaluated – early diagnosis significantly increases treatment effectiveness.

What does neurological diagnostics involve?

The diagnostic process includes:

  • detailed medical history
  • neurological examination
  • assessment of motor function, sensation, and reflexes

If necessary, patients are referred for imaging and specialist tests such as:

  • MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) – not performed on-site
  • CT scan (Computed Tomography) – not performed on-site
  • EEG (Electroencephalography) – not performed on-site
  • other tests tailored to symptoms

Neurological treatment – individualized approach

Treatment is tailored to the type and severity of the condition. We offer:

  • modern pharmacotherapy
  • pain management
  • neurological physiotherapy
  • rehabilitation supporting motor function
  • a comprehensive approach to chronic conditions

Our goal is not only to treat symptoms but also to improve quality of life and daily functioning.

Treatment of Parkinson’s disease and other parkinsonisms

A key area of our practice is the diagnosis and treatment of Parkinson’s disease and other parkinsonian syndromes.

We provide:

  • early diagnosis
  • differentiation of parkinsonism types
  • selection of effective and modern pharmacotherapy
  • disease progression monitoring
  • treatment of symptoms such as tremor, muscle rigidity, and slowed movements

Properly selected treatment significantly improves quality of life and helps maintain patient independence for longer.

    What symptoms indicate that you should see a neurologist?

    It is worth seeing a neurologist in the case of symptoms such as chronic headaches, dizziness, numbness in the limbs, memory problems, muscle weakness, hand tremors or balance disorders. Any disturbing symptom that persists for a long time or increases quickly requires a specialist’s consultation.

    Do you need any special preparation for a visit to a neurologist?

    Before your visit, it is a good idea to gather medical records, previous test results, and a list of medications you are taking. If your symptoms are related to headaches, it is a good idea to keep a journal describing the frequency and nature of the pain. In the case of memory problems, information from loved ones about the patient’s behavior will be helpful.

    What diseases do neurologists most often treat?

    A neurologist deals with a wide range of conditions, including diseases of the central and peripheral nervous system. The most common of these are headaches and back pain, cerebrovascular diseases (e.g. strokes), epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, neuromuscular diseases, and dementia syndromes such as Alzheimer’s disease.

    Do all neurological diseases require pharmacological treatment?

    Not always. Many neurological conditions can also be treated with non-pharmacological methods, such as rehabilitation, psychological therapy or lifestyle changes. The neurologist selects the appropriate treatment plan individually for each patient, taking into account the nature of the disease and its stage of advancement.
