International Neurosurgery and Neurology

Boston Children’s Hospital is known worldwide for excellence in the neurosciences.

With nearly 40 specialized programs, our Department of Neurology treats more nervous system conditions than any pediatric neurology program in the world, including rare and complex disorders. We offer advanced clinical services including a rapid response team, specialized Level 4 epilepsy care, genetics, rehabilitation programs, and biofeedback treatment for headache.

For nearly a century, the Department of Neurosurgery has delivered innovative care to children needing complex surgical treatment for diseases and disorders of the brain, spine, and nervous system. We use the latest treatments and techniques to improve and optimize surgical outcomes, including three-dimensional printing for surgical planning, which helps ensure our surgeons are prepared for every possibility during surgery.

With the depth and breadth of our programs and services, we provide unmatched expertise to families from around the world looking for the best neurological or neurosurgical care for their children.
