Patient Stories
Ava's story: How a mother's intuition led to game-changing care
A mother’s intuition can be a powerful force. For Ava, it led to a life-changing diagnosis in infancy that most children don’t get until they’re at least six years old.

Recognized epilepsy care, close to home
Our neurologists are committed to finding better ways to treat childhood neurological disorders. Because we're involved in global neurology research, some children have access to the newest treatments before they're widely available, including emerging therapies for epilepsy, rare neurological conditions, and neuromuscular disease. We offer many clinical trials and experimental medicines through our partnership with UT Southwestern, one of the top medical research centers in the country.
