Neurologists in Birmingham, AL

I have gone months without soft drinks and still had these migraines and kidney stones. My eyes are very light sensitive but it is not my eyes, at least according to 3 different eye doctors including Dr Shaefer(sp?). Mine present something like this Click below to see the animation http://www.migraine-aura.com/site/content/e27891/e27265/e26585/e49268/e49334/e64437/GR_Animation1_en.gif But eventually it blacks out and closes in. After my vision returns and normalizes the incredible pain begins.

Ive had them since 6 years old...Dr.Frank Thomas at Simon-Williamson has helped give me my life back...Dr. Thomas suffers from them as well so he approaches migraines from a personal place....I was in a study and it showed that migraines for me started in my heart...so with a oral med daily that helps my bp...fluid...valve...etc....I may average 3 a year now where before several a week...to the point my left tear duct would bleed from the pressure....I have imitrex/phenagren shots when I need them.....if you wanna chat call me! Hope you feel better bro!

Apparently Dianne Counce is the local legend of choice. I called and was informed that even though my insurance does not require a referral, she does, along with the other doctor needing to fill out and fax her my medical and insurance information. I'll do the dance and kiss her pinky ring if that's what it takes to see this wizard of oz, but she better be better than just good and willing to spend time with me when I make it in to the holy of holies for an audience.

Dr Diethelm & Dr Sykes both evaluate & treat a lot of Parkinson's Disease patients. They don't specifically specialize in anything. Both are basic neurologists so they treat a large variety of neuro issues. 205-836-9366@SVE bldg 48 suite 351.

I work at Neurology East - ofc of Dr Richard Gill Diethelm & Dr Paul Sykes & our nurse practitioner Jessica Whitaker Waine. All 3 are awesome! Dr Diethelm does Botox injections for migraines if recommended as well as all of them can treat all of the basic neurological issues. Our ofc number is 205-836-9366 & press option 1 to schedule appts. We are located@St Vincent's East between Trussville & Roebuck in bldg 48, suite 351. If any type of neuro surgery is necessary then they will refer to great neurosurgeons as well. Good luck.

Paul Sykes.. St Vin East

Dr. Diethelm is a fine physician and a fine man, too. You would be well pleased with his manner and his professional knowledge and experience.

Cannot go wrong with Dr. Diethelm OR Dr. Sykes. Both are at St. V East.

Dr Gordon kirschburg. My sister loved him. Was very concerned and ran several test. Things others did not do but should have. Good luck.

Dr Diethelm is very nice.

Dr Diethelm is wonderful.

Dr. Gordon Kirschberg at Southern Neurology at Brookwood.

I love Dr. Dallas Russell at Trinity!

Emily riser IS very good! John Rinker is awesome at Kirklin Clinic. I have a few other names at Kirklin if you need them

I use dr Richard Diethelm at SVE. He's in the professional building on medical park drive. My neurosurgeon at Brookwood recommend him. I really like him a lot. He is awesome and has gotten rid of my severe migraines.

Dr. Diethhelm is the best! SVE

Dr Deithelm cured my migraines.

I used Colby Maher at St Vincent's and really liked him.

Dr O'Neal at St. Vincents Bham is really good. Dr Wes King or Dr Newton also at St. Vincents.

Emily Riser Brookwood

Dr. King or Newton@STV Bham, we refer our pts there

I use Dr. Clark at St. Vincents!

Dr. Wes King at St. Vincent's. Young guy and his patients love him!

Dr. Mark Hadley do NOT see Dr. Carter Harsh at St. Vincent

I use Dr. Kovjick at Brookwood..

Dr. O'Neill at St. Vincent is very good. His specialty is diagnostics. He is for adults.

Mine is wonderful! Great man! Great bedside manor and very caring. Dr. OKor at UAB.

My mom and I use Dr. Fagan at Princeton. He's awesome. My dad has used Dr. Mark Hadley at UAB; he's a neurosurgeon.

Dr. William Woodall is the best.

Love Dr Harsh and any of the Drs at Birmingham Neurology

Dr Cheryl Goyne for sure

Dr. Cheryl Goyne............the best.

I have a friend with dysautonomia, but she lives in Florida. We see Dr. Counce, but for migraines. Not sure who to recommend. I'm sorry.

See Dr. Sean O'Malley at the Brain and Spine Center at Shelby.

Not Dr Counce!!

I also would not recommend Dr. Counce.

Dr. Goli@Shelby Baptist Medical Center...not sure if there is an age requirement.

I believe Dr. Goyne is in the building behind Arby's by the hospital.

Dr. Jan Mathisen@Children's is wonderful. My son has been under his care for nearly four years now. He is a pediatric neurologist.

I second Dr Jan Mathisen. You may have to wait in the room a while but that is because he REFUSES to rush. He sits down and dosent leave until hes satisfied you understand everything. I had a 2 hour wait one time because he had to deliver bad news and sat in the room with the mom until she was ok, and the office staff made sure we didnt need anything; drinks tv and toys, and kept us updated. I personally dont mind waiting on a Dr like that.

I've been to Dr. Mathisen & he is awesome! He talks to the patients rather than the parents to get their perspective on things so he gets a better understanding. He's wonderful. Highly recommend!

Rhonda I have a good friend that use http://www.drblakepearson.com/ and had great results.

Dr. Carter Harsh.

I see Dr. Wesley King at st Vincents. He's a good guy and isn't too hard to get an appointment with.

That was Dr. Hrynkiw! Worked with him and Dr. Swillie at Trinity....Both excellent physicians.

Camilio Gomez at Brookwood. He's the best.

Dr. Harsh he's did my hubby's surgery both times!

Dr. David O'Neal ...the very best at St. Vincent's he is knowledgeable and compassionate ...also my nephew

Dr. Carter Harsh. He operated on Steve's back 10 years ago this September. We were scared of back surgery, but he came highly recommended to us...and lived up to his press!

Faith, you were right! Dr. Zenko J. Hrynkiw, MD is the 6 mile doctor and a neurosurgeon!! Anne, will need a neurosurgeon but thought I had to see neurologist first for referral. Have since learned that may not be true.

Mark Hadley at Kirkland clinic did a discectomy on me and I was wrestling 4 months later

Dr Woodall at St Vincent's did my spinal fusion.

My friend Deesha Durham Wolfe who is the office manager for Dr Roger Allen recommended Dr Dorsett in Gadsden.

It makes sense the TMJ but still make them do an EKG. Dr. Koslin is quite good. I have worked with him before with Dr. Rousso. I have TMJ problems, had them in High School. A bite block just doesn't get it. You need high end stuff for the grinding and...See More

Hey Jaide Barnett Winn. Dr. Koslin is good if you need an oral surgeon. Dr Chip Taylor on Hollywood Blvd (also has a location in Hoover) is an orthodontist. He made a bite plate for me years ago and cured my jaw pain and head aches. Number is (205) 879-5216.

Chip Taylor is my doc in retirement. I am calling it sabbatical. He is the one that gave me the above regime.

Sorry Jaide Barnett Winn. I didn't know Dr. Taylor was on sabbatical.

Janie Frazier, I thought of him. But, when I called Dr King, the dentist, they didn't say anything about him, so I was wondering if he still does TMJ. I thought I would call them.

George A Winn, boy do I feel so sorry for her. Does she have something she sleeps in?

Dr. Richard Diethlem awesome Dr. St. Vincent's east I had terrible migraines and he gives me botox it works wonders. 205-836-9366

Dr. David Oneal at St Vincent's downtown. I researched fb recommendations and he had great reviews. I like him and he has a great bedside manner. I am on a preventative and have something just in case. I am having an occipital nerve block next week.

Neurologist: Gordon Kirschberg at Brookwood Hospital in Birmingham. Neurosurgeon: Thomas Staner- his office is in Greystone (down Hwy 280, which is a pain, but not bad for a morning appt because you can go against the traffic)

Dr Uddin 212-6100

Dr Wesley king did wonders for me

Diane Counce in Hoover

James Patrick Daily - I went to a cardiologist yesterday and he was able to tell that something is off with my heart. He thinks it's micro valve prolapse, but won't know until I get more testing done in early December. I think he's right though because I have every single symptom that they list on this page - http://www.mvprolapse.com/symptoms_testing.php. Let me know if you think this encompasses your symptoms too.

Emilie works at Johns Hopkins at the PICU so I expect she knows a doctor or two.

@Emilie: I had a friend named Marybeth Bounds who worked in PICU at JHU. I wonder if you knew her. Her husband is a cardiologist and has been able to relay some advice to Justin through this ordeal.
