Together, the Neurology staff provide a wide variety of outpatient clinics at Colchester Hospital. Demand for neurology outpatient services has been rising steadily over the past decade and the service currently sees approximately 3600 new patients each year. All consultants contribute to the general Neurology outpatient service, which includes a fast-track pathway for patients with suspected seizures. In addition there are subspecialty clinics for patients.
