Epilepsy Treatments

Every year, University Health epilepsy specialists help thousands of children and adults with epilepsy gain control of seizures and reclaim a better quality of life.

Our multidisciplinary team of epilepsy experts understands the impact epilepsy has on your life and the people you love. It’s why they’re dedicated to using their expertise and the most advanced treatment to help you, not your seizures, take control of your life.

The South Texas Comprehensive Epilepsy Center (STCEC) is the region’s only center with a Level IV rating—the highest rating possible—from the National Association of Epilepsy Centers. That means we have the expertise and facilities to provide the highest level of evaluation and treatment, even for the most difficult-to-control seizures.

Treatment Options to Control Seizures

An accurate epilepsy diagnosis is the first step to controlling seizures. To determine the most effective treatment to control your seizures, our specialists use the latest technology and diagnostic procedures to pinpoint the type of seizure you’re having, where it’s located and the cause.

Epilepsy Medication & Surgery

For 70% of people with epilepsy, medication is the solution to controlling seizures. If medication isn’t effective, we offer the most advanced medical and surgical therapies to control seizures.

Our team of specialists—neurologists, neurosurgeons, neuropsychologists and psychiatrists—has the expertise, innovative tools, advanced technology and compassion to improve your quality of life.
