We welcome Dr. Bhatt to the HFM network

"After practicing neurology in Manitowoc for the past 25 years, I know that personal, compassionate care is important to my patients. That's why I'm proud to join the Holy Family Memorial Health Network, which prides itself on patient-centered, excellent medical care."

What is Neurology?

Neurology is a medical specialty dealing with disorders of the nervous system. A neurologist is a physician (not a surgeon) who specializes in neurology, and is trained to investigate, or diagnose and treat, neurological disorders.

Neurological disorders are disorders that can affect

  • the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord)
  • the peripheral nervous system
  • or the autonomic nervous system

Major conditions include:

  • headache disorders such as migraine, cluster headache and tension
