The Comprehensive Epilepsy Center

Widely acclaimed for pioneering achievements in research and clinical innovations, the epileptologists of Weill Cornell provide a multidisciplinary approach to the complex medical and social needs of patients with seizures. Individuals and families receiving care here have access to the vast resources of one of the country's most prestigious medical and teaching institutions. Our neurosurgeons specialize in both adult and pediatric epilepsy surgery.

Children and adults with hard-to-manage seizures may be considered for epilepsy surgery if seizures remain uncontrolled after treatment with three or more anti-epileptic medications. In addition to possible impairment by side effects of anti-epileptic medications, patients with uncontrolled, frequent seizures may experience various behavioral conditions.
