Neurological disorders can range from conditions that require long-term management to emergencies where every minute matters. Choosing an experienced neurologist becomes particularly important when symptoms are sudden, recurrent, unexplained or progressively affecting a person’s independence.
For residents of Sector 17 Faridabad and surrounding areas, I provide specialist neurological consultation for conditions affecting the brain, spinal cord, nerves and muscles.
I am Dr. (Prof.) Kunal Bahrani, DM Neurology from AIIMS, New Delhi, with more than 15 years of experience in clinical neurology. I currently serve as Chairman & Group Director – Neurology at Yatharth Hospital, Faridabad.
Stroke Requires Speed
Stroke is one of the most important neurological emergencies.
A patient may suddenly develop weakness or numbness on one side, difficulty speaking, facial asymmetry, loss of vision, severe imbalance or confusion.
These symptoms should never be observed at home in the hope that they will improve.
Early recognition and rapid medical assessment are essential because some forms of acute stroke may be treated within specific time windows.
My clinical experience includes acute stroke management and thrombolysis, along with the longer-term neurological care required after stroke.
Epilepsy and Seizures
A seizure can be frightening for the patient and family. However, one seizure does not automatically mean that a person has epilepsy.
A neurological evaluation may be required to understand what happened, whether it was truly a seizure and whether further investigations such as EEG or brain imaging are appropriate.
For patients diagnosed with epilepsy, treatment is generally individualised. The choice of medication can depend on the type of seizure, age, other medical conditions, lifestyle and several other factors.
Parkinson’s Disease and Tremor
Tremor is often associated with Parkinson’s disease, but not every tremor is Parkinson’s disease.
Parkinson’s can also involve slowness of movement, stiffness, changes in walking, reduced facial expression and other symptoms.
Early evaluation is useful because treatment is not simply about controlling tremor. The overall pattern of symptoms and their effect on movement and daily activities need to be considered.
Neurological Problems After Stroke
Stroke care does not end when the patient leaves the hospital.
Some patients continue to experience weakness, speech difficulties, imbalance, memory problems, muscle stiffness or other neurological symptoms.
Follow-up allows the patient’s neurological condition to be reassessed and treatment adjusted when required. Rehabilitation, physiotherapy, speech therapy and other supportive services may also form part of recovery depending on the patient’s needs.
When Should a Patient See a Neurologist?
A neurological consultation may be appropriate for:
- Recurrent seizures
- Unexplained blackouts or episodes of loss of awareness
- Sudden weakness or numbness
- Persistent headaches or migraine
- Tremors
- Difficulty walking or maintaining balance
- Progressive memory loss
- Persistent dizziness or vertigo
- Tingling or burning sensations
- Muscle weakness
- Changes in speech or swallowing
- Symptoms that continue despite initial treatment
A Practical Approach to Neurological Diagnosis
Neurology requires careful history-taking and examination. In many cases, the history itself provides important clues.
I therefore prefer to understand:
- When the symptoms began
- How they have changed
- Whether they are constant or episodic
- What triggers or worsens them
- What treatment has already been tried
- Existing medical conditions
- Current medicines
- Relevant family history
Investigations are then recommended when they are clinically appropriate.

No. Tremor has many possible causes. A neurologist can assess the pattern of tremor and associated symptoms before reaching a diagnosis.
