Which department should I go to for epilepsy?

Patient's question:

My colleague has been twitching recently, and I suspect she might have epilepsy. I want to accompany her to see a doctor. Hello, which department should I go to for an epilepsy consultation?

Doctor's answer:

Now there may be some colleagues who have epilepsy. If there are problems with the questioning, this situation may be related to petit mal epilepsy, also known as focal recurrence. It is recommended to visit the neurology outpatient department for a thorough examination. Detailed and careful examination of the brain MRI and EEG should be conducted to help determine the type of epilepsy and its severity, and to carry out systematic antiepileptic treatment. Some people can be stabilized through surgery.
