Neurology Clinic: Michael L. Goldstein, MD, (neurologist/pediatric neurologist) and Walter H. Reichert, MD, (neurologist) see patients for initial neurological consultation and followup at this clinic with the help of their midlevel providers. An appointment can generally be scheduled within a week or two. Dr. Goldstein is the only pediatric neurologist in the Salt Lake City area outside of Primary Children's Hospital. He sees both children and adults. Dr. Reichert sees patients 18 yearsof age and older.
Neurological conditions often require additional testing beyond the initial consultation. Western Neurological physicians may order MRI or CT scans, EEG tests, EMG/NCV tests, and lumbar punctures; all of which are performed on site (patients may choose to have testing done at another facility).
