Neurology
Consultant Neurologist and Epileptologist8+ Years of Experience
S. L. Raheja Hospital
Mumbai
Dr. Sreelakshmi N is a Consultant Neurologist and Epileptologist at S. L. Raheja Hospital – A Fortis Associate, Mahim, Mumbai. With over eight years of clinical experience in neurology, she specialises in evaluating and managing neurological disorders, with particular expertise in epilepsy and complex seizure conditions.
She completed her postgraduate training with a DNB and subsequently pursued a DM in Neurology at Amrita Institute of Medical Sciences, Kochi. She further advanced her specialist training by completing a Post-Doctoral Fellowship (PDF) in Epilepsy, focusing on the assessment and management of complex and drug-resistant epilepsy.
Dr. Sreelakshmi has expertise in advanced neurodiagnostic techniques, including long-term video electroencephalography (EEG) monitoring, stereo-electroencephalography (stereo-EEG), and intraoperative electrocorticography. These investigations can help identify seizure activity and support individualised treatment planning, including evaluation for epilepsy surgery when appropriate.
Her clinical interests include epilepsy, seizure disorders, and a broad range of neurological conditions. Her approach combines detailed clinical assessment with appropriate diagnostic investigations to help guide treatment and ongoing neurological care.
Assessment and management of epilepsy, a neurological condition characterised by a tendency to experience recurrent seizures, with treatment tailored to the patient's seizure type and medical history.
Specialist evaluation for patients whose seizures continue despite appropriate medication trials, including assessment of alternative treatments and suitability for advanced epilepsy care.
Evaluation of episodes involving abnormal electrical activity in the brain, helping identify the cause of seizures and determine appropriate treatment and follow-up.
Comprehensive assessment for selected patients with drug-resistant epilepsy to identify where seizures begin in the brain and determine whether epilepsy surgery may be appropriate.
Continuous recording of brain electrical activity alongside video observation to help characterise seizures, assess unusual episodes, and support epilepsy diagnosis and treatment planning.
An advanced diagnostic procedure that records electrical activity from selected areas inside the brain to help locate seizure-generating regions in patients undergoing specialised epilepsy evaluation.
Monitoring of electrical activity directly from the brain's surface during selected neurosurgical procedures to help assess seizure-related activity and guide surgical decisions.
Assessment and management of disorders affecting the brain, spinal cord, nerves, and muscles, with investigations and treatment tailored to individual symptoms and clinical findings.
Evaluation of recurrent or persistent headaches to identify possible causes, distinguish headache disorders, and develop an appropriate management plan.
Assessment and treatment planning for migraine, a neurological disorder that may cause recurring headaches, nausea, and sensitivity to light or sound.
Neurological assessment of symptoms that may indicate a stroke and follow-up care to evaluate neurological effects and support appropriate management.
Evaluation of nerve damage that may cause numbness, tingling, burning pain, or weakness, including investigations to identify underlying causes and guide treatment.
Assessment of neurological conditions affecting movement, coordination, or muscle control, with treatment planning based on symptoms and the underlying disorder.
Evaluation of memory loss and changes in thinking or daily functioning to investigate possible causes and guide appropriate care and follow-up.
Assessment of dizziness, imbalance, and spinning sensations to help distinguish neurological causes from other conditions and determine suitable management.
