The program’s mission is to provide the highest quality care in a patient-centered and professional manner while staying attuned to the fact that we care for patients who face notable hardships and barriers to getting healthcare.  We strive to create an environment of inquiry amongst faculty and residents so that we challenge each other to keep up to date on progress in the field of neurology and provide evidence-based care.  Our graduates are equipped to manage the broadest array of neurological diseases in the communities they serve.
