The rotation, which comprises a busy inpatient consultation service and an active outpatient clinic, provides residents with exposure to a very wide range of acute and chronic neurologic disorders that complements the educational experience at the university and VA hospitals. Ancillary services such as neuroradiology, neuropathology, and clinical neurophysiology are all well represented. Attending physicians, all members of the Stanford faculty, are actively involved in bedside teaching, weekly conferences, and the supervision of patient care.
