Neurology Care

Neurology is the branch of medicine specializing in conditions and disorders of the brain and nervous system.

Along with general neurological care, we offer specialized treatment for stroke care and multiple sclerosis (MS)

Specializing in the brain and nervous system

The brain controls the body through nerves. Nerves running throughout the body relay messages from the brain and send information to the brain. 

When you grab a hot pan, the nerves send the message to the brain that your hand is being burned. The brain responds by telling the hand to drop the pain to prevent further injury. 

Issues that arise with the brain and the complex network of nerves may best be diagnosed, treated and managed by an experienced neurologist.

How Your Period Can Reveal Your Health Story
How Your Period Can Reveal Your Health Story

At Tanner Women’s Care, serving women throughout west Georgia and east Alabama with locations in Carrollton, Villa Rica and Wedowee, we hear common questions like, “Is my period normal? How often should it occur? When should I worry about irregular periods?” These concerns are valid and deserve clear answers close to home. Typically, a healthy menstrual cycle occurs every 21 to 35 days, lasts from three to seven days, and is accompanied by a flow that doesn’t interfere with daily life. But “normal” can vary — what truly matters is knowing your own rhythm and noticing when things change.
