Neurology at Prodorso Zurich
At Prodorso, our neurology department offers diagnosis and treatment for the entire spectrum of neurological conditions. A particular focus lies in the diagnosis and management of spinal disorders, such as radiculopathy and spinal stenosis, as well as neuromuscular diseases, including neurophysiological examinations.
Furthermore, we support our patients in areas such as stroke aftercare, including neurovascular ultrasound diagnostics, as well as pain management (e.g., headaches and migraines, back, nerve, and muscle pain), muscle weakness or loss of strength resulting from disorders of the brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerves, or muscles, and vertigo. We are also available for comprehensive consultation and continuous medical care for complex neurological issues.

Questions & Answers
We offer diagnosis and treatment for the entire spectrum of neurological conditions. We specialize in spinal disorders (such as herniated discs with nerve irritation or spinal stenosis) as well as neuromuscular diseases. Stroke aftercare and the assessment of vertigo are also among our core competencies.
These examinations are designed to precisely measure the function of your nerves and muscles. This includes, for example, measuring nerve conduction velocity or muscle activity. They are essential for determining whether muscle weakness or numbness is caused by a disorder in the brain, spinal cord, or directly in the peripheral nerve (e.g., in the case of radiculopathy).
It is particularly advisable to see a doctor if the pain radiates into your arms or legs (radiculopathy) or is accompanied by sensory disturbances, tingling, or muscle weakness. We examine whether nerve structures are being compressed by spinal changes (such as spinal stenosis) and initiate the appropriate therapy.
We use neurovascular ultrasound diagnostics to examine the vessels supplying the brain, pain-free and without radiation exposure. This is particularly important for stroke aftercare or as a preventative measure to detect circulatory disorders early and minimize the risk of further events.
Yes. Pain disorders such as migraines, tension headaches, as well as nerve pain (neuralgia) and muscle pain are part of our daily treatment spectrum. We create individual therapy plans to sustainably improve your quality of life and reduce periods of pain.
For unclear symptoms such as vertigo, general weakness, or coordination issues, we take the time for a comprehensive consultation. Thanks to our interdisciplinary structure, we can evaluate neurological findings directly in the context of other specialties (e.g., orthopaedics), offering you continuous medical care from a single source.
