Ataxia neurologists how to prepare
Taking an active role and advocating for patient needs is important when seeking an Ataxia diagnosis. Begin with a discussion with a primary care physician. However, some physicians may not be familiar with Ataxia because it is a rare disease. If Ataxia is suspected, the primary care physician will likely make a referral to a neurologist. Neurologists will have the expertise needed to confirm a diagnosis and determine the type of Ataxia.
