Our clinic is the first of its kind in the country, fully dedicated to diagnosing and treating rare and complex brain and nerve conditions using international standards of care. Led by Dr. Ishan Adhikari, a USA board-certified neurologist and clinical neurophysiologist, our team brings world-class expertise to patients right here in Nepal—so you no longer need to travel abroad to receive high-quality neurological care.
We specialize in treating patients with seizures, treatment-resistant epilepsy, Duchenne muscular dystrophy, myasthenia gravis, ALS, and other serious nerve and muscle diseases. Our clinic offers advanced tests like EEG and video EEG to better understand and manage your condition. We create personalized treatment plans based on U.S. guidelines and provide long-term support for you and your family throughout your care journey. For complex or unclear diagnoses, we also offer expert second opinions.
Our work is supported by partnerships with both Nepali and international organizations such as the Nepal League Against Epilepsy, Muscular Dystrophy Association of Nepal, CureDuchenne, Treat-NMD, and UT Southwestern’s Global Health Program. These partnerships help us stay at the forefront of neurology care, education, and research—building a stronger future for neuroscience in Nepal.
