Who can be seen at the First-Time Seizure Clinic?

• Any child who has had their first seizure within the last month can be seen in this clinic. The clinic is designed to help identify the cause of the child's first seizure and help the family establish a management or treatment plan if necessary. The child should meet the following criteria for this clinic: 
  • Had their first seizure within the last month or is waiting on a referral to a neurologist following a visit to an Emergency Room, urgent care clinic or pediatrician's office
  • Has NOT yet seen a neurologist or been diagnosed with epilepsy or seizure disorder

• If your child is currently waiting for a neurology visit for their first seizure, the First-Time Seizure Clinic may be an option to have your child evaluated sooner. 

• If your child has been diagnosed with epilepsy, seizure disorder or other neurological conditions and you are looking to schedule a visit with one of our pediatric neurologists, please contact Boys Town Pediatric Neuroscience at 531-355-7420. We can see your child with less time from call to care. 

What if my child has another seizure?

If your child has a second seizure after your evaluation with us, contact us right away, day or night. You have already established care with Boys Town Pediatric Neuroscience and our team of pediatric neurologists and nurses will be available to guide you on next steps in your child's care.

If your child is experiencing seizures and you have not established care with us, contact your primary care provider or contact our clinic to request an appointment with Boys Town Pediatric Neuroscience.
