Athens Neurological Associates

Athens Neurological Associates is a medical clinic in Athens, Georgia, located at 1088 A Baxter Street. The practice has brought neurological care to the Classic City and the surrounding Northeast Georgia communities since 1978, and since its 2000 relocation it has operated from a 13,500 square foot clinic in the heart of Athens. Seven board-certified or board-eligible neurologists and three nurse practitioners evaluate and treat brain and spinal disorders, supported by more than 40 staff members and close to 30,000 active patient charts. Each physician works with a primary nurse to help patients navigate healthcare and insurance. Through a partnership with Athens Regional Medical Center, the practice's physicians provide emergency care coverage 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It holds a rating of 4.50 based on 1,024 reviews.

Care spans all stages of life, from pediatrics through geriatrics. Commonly treated conditions include cerebrovascular disease and stroke, headache and migraine, epilepsy, sleep disorders, movement disorders and Parkinson's disease, dystonias, dementia and Alzheimer's, attention-deficit disorder, neuromuscular disease, peripheral neuropathy, neuroimmunological disease and multiple sclerosis, and spinal disease. Specialized clinical services include Botox therapy, deep brain stimulation, infusion services, intrathecal pump management, lumbar puncture, pediatric neurology, skin biopsy, trigger point and nerve block injections, ultrasound, and vagus nerve stimulation. Neurodiagnostics cover EEG, evoked potentials, fundus photography, and NCV/EMG. The practice also runs a sleep center for the diagnosis of sleep disturbances and an on-site MRI and MRA program. Dr. Brannon Morris serves as the only pediatric neurologist in the Athens area, working alongside patients' established pediatricians and Athens Regional Medical Center. Additional offices on Baxter Street house the Child and Adolescent Neurology Center and the Neurodiagnostics and Sleep Center.

The clinic sits on Baxter Street, about 0.1 miles from Yusicga Creek and Brooklyn Creek, and a similar distance from The Muse of Learning public artwork. The University Garden Apartments Community Center is about 0.2 miles away, as is the public artwork Clover.

The practice's standing rests on a solid reputation among the patients it has served and an established track record built on a large base of customer reviews. For Athens and Northeast Georgia, that means a neurology practice with decades of local history and the range to treat both common and uncommon neurological disorders.
