Summary
Within the epilepsy service we provide first seizure, epilepsy surgery, adolescent transition, neuro-obstetrics and learning disability/epilepsy clinics in addition to the general/complex epilepsy clinics. Weekly MDTs are held with the neurophysiology department to review EEGs, and there is a twice monthly epilepsy surgery meeting. We are planning to expand our provision of video-telemetry. We plan to use this appointment to extend our contribution to the neuro-oncology team in the trust. This group has the prestigious Tessa Jowell accreditation as a Centre of Excellence from 2021. Furthermore, there is also a chance to lead on regional liaison with the neurofibromatosis service where there is an unmet need in the North East.
