If an illness or injury harms your brain or spine, it can take a toll on your life. Perhaps you live with chronic headaches or suffer from seizures. Maybe you’re dealing with memory loss or painful nerve damage in your feet.

You’ll find care for many brain and spine disorders at PeaceHealth. Our team includes specialists in neurology (diagnosis and treatment of conditions affecting the central and peripheral nervous systems), neurosurgery, brain imaging, physical therapy, rehabilitation and psychology.

Brain and spine care at PeaceHealth

You deserve neurology or neurosurgery care that is safe and supportive. At PeaceHealth, you’ll find:

Nationally certified stroke care

PeaceHealth is dedicated to delivering the highest standard of evidence-based care to individuals with stroke and cerebrovascular disease. Our multi-disciplinary approach encompasses prevention, early detection, acute care, education and rehabilitation. Det Norske Vertias (DNV) has certified PeaceHealth Sacred Heart Medical Center at RiverBend as a Comprehensive Stroke Center and PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center as a Primary Stroke Center.

Improved epilepsy diagnosis

PeaceHealth makes it easier for doctors to monitor your seizures and confirm whether you have epilepsy. We offer electroencephalogram (EEG) testing to record your brain waves for 24-72 hours — in the comfort of your home.

Advanced brain surgery techniques

PeaceHealth doctors can treat conditions using minimally invasive techniques including aneurysm coiling, stroke embolization and angioplasty and stenting.

Highest level of rehabilitation

Our inpatient rehabilitation center is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities. Patients cared for in accredited facilities often improve their functional abilities more quickly. This means they can return to their homes instead of a skilled nursing facility.

Clinical trials

Clinical trials can offer new solutions and hope to patients. They test emerging therapies and may give you access to treatments and cures not available to everyone. Contact our clinic to learn more.
