Neurologists treat disorders of the nervous system, brain, spinal cord, nerves and muscles.

Your neurologist will review your patient health history, paying special attention to the condition that you are currently experiencing. Then you will have an examination, which typically tests your vision, strength, coordination, memory, reasoning and puzzle-solving abilities, reflexes and ability to feel physical objects, smell odors and hear sounds. The results of your test will help your neurologist determine if your problem stems from the brain or nervous system. You may need further tests to confirm a diagnosis or determine which treatment is best for you.

When it comes to a stroke, the best way to determine whether someone is having one is to think F.A.S.T.

• Face. Does the face look uneven? Ask the person to smile.
• Arms. Does one arm drift down? Ask the person to raise both arms.
• Speech. Does their speech sound strange? Ask the person to repeat a simple phrase.
• Time. If you observe any of these signs, it is time to call 911.
