Neurology Department | Cheema Medical Complex, Mohali | Expert Brain & Nerve Care in the Tricity
The Neurology Department at Cheema Medical Complex (CMC) in Mohali provides comprehensive diagnosis, treatment, and management of disorders affecting the brain, spinal cord, nerves, and muscles. We serve patients across the Tricity area—Chandigarh, Mohali, Panchkula—as well as Punjab, Haryana, and Himachal Pradesh.
Neurological conditions can be frightening. A sudden headache, unexplained weakness, or a seizure changes life in an instant. At CMC, we combine advanced technology with compassionate care. Our department is led by Dr. Harpreet Kaur (MD, DrNB Neurology) , a highly trained neurologist with expertise in stroke management, epilepsy, migraine, and movement disorders.
We understand that every patient is unique. Whether you need emergency stroke care, long-term management of Parkinson’s disease, or a second opinion for chronic headaches, our team is here for you. With our dedicated Neurological Care Unit (NCU) , 24×7 EEG services, and in-house MRI and CT Scan, we ensure that you never have to wait or travel elsewhere for critical tests.

Conditions We Treat
We manage a wide range of neurological disorders. Below are the most common conditions we see in our OPD and emergency services.
1. Stroke (Brain Attack): A stroke occurs when blood supply to a part of the brain is interrupted or reduced, preventing brain tissue from getting oxygen. Symptoms include sudden numbness or weakness on one side of the body, confusion, trouble speaking, or loss of balance. We provide 24×7 thrombolysis (clot buster) treatment within the golden hour.
2. Epilepsy (Seizure Disorder): Epilepsy is a condition where abnormal electrical activity in the brain causes repeated seizures. Seizures may involve convulsions, staring spells, or unusual sensations. We offer EEG-guided diagnosis and long-term medication plans to help patients live seizure-free.
3. Migraine & Chronic Headaches: Migraine is not just a bad headache. It causes intense throbbing pain, often on one side, along with nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light or sound. We provide preventive medications, lifestyle advice, and acute attack management.
4. Parkinson’s Disease: Parkinson’s is a progressive movement disorder caused by loss of dopamine-producing brain cells. Symptoms include tremors (shaking), muscle stiffness, slow movement, and balance problems. We offer medication management and coordinate with physiotherapy for better mobility.
5. Peripheral Neuropathy: This condition causes numbness, tingling, burning pain, or weakness in the hands and feet. It is commonly seen in diabetic patients. We use nerve conduction studies to diagnose the cause and provide treatment to relieve symptoms.
6. Dementia & Alzheimer’s Disease: Dementia is a decline in memory, thinking, and reasoning that interferes with daily life. Alzheimer’s is the most common cause. We provide cognitive assessments, caregiver support, and medications to slow progression.
7. Vertigo & Balance Disorders: Vertigo is a sensation of spinning or dizziness. It can be caused by inner ear problems (BPPV) or serious brainstem conditions. We accurately diagnose the cause and provide appropriate treatment, including repositioning maneuvers.
8. Multiple Sclerosis (MS): MS is a condition where the immune system attacks the protective covering of nerves. Symptoms include fatigue, vision problems, weakness, and coordination difficulties. We offer disease-modifying therapies to manage flare-ups and slow progression.
Procedures
Diagnostic Procedures
These tests help us accurately identify what is causing your neurological symptoms.
1.) MRI Brain & Spine – Detailed imaging to detect stroke, tumors, inflammation, or nerve damage.
2.) CT Scan Brain – Rapid imaging for emergency stroke, bleeding, or skull fractures
3.) EEG (Electroencephalogram) – Records brain electrical activity to diagnose epilepsy and seizure disorders
4.) Nerve Conduction Study (NCS) – Measures how fast nerves transmit signals; helps diagnose neuropathy
5.) Electromyography (EMG) – Tests muscle response to nerve stimulation; detects muscle disorders
6.) Lumbar Puncture (Spinal Tap) – Collects cerebrospinal fluid to diagnose meningitis, MS, or bleeding
Interventional & Treatment Procedures
These are treatments we perform for various neurological conditions.
1.) Thrombolysis (Clot Buster Therapy) – Emergency IV medication to dissolve blood clots in acute ischemic stroke
2.) Botox for Chronic Migraine – Injection therapy to prevent migraine attacks in patients who don’t respond to oral medications
3.) Intravenous Immunoglobulin (IVIG) Therapy – Used for Guillain-Barré syndrome and myasthenia gravis to modulate the immune system
4.) Plasmapheresis (Plasma Exchange) – Removes harmful antibodies from blood; used for GBS and MS relapses
5.) Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS) – For drug-resistant epilepsy (referral to neurosurgery)
When to See a Neurologist
Do not ignore these warning signs. If you or a family member experience any of the following, consult a neurologist immediately.
- 1.) Sudden numbness or weakness – Especially on one side of the face, arm, or leg
- 2.) Severe headache – A headache that comes on suddenly and feels like “the worst of your life”
- 3.) Unexplained seizures – Any episode of convulsions, staring spells, or loss of consciousness
- 4.) Persistent dizziness or vertigo – Especially if accompanied by double vision or trouble walking
- 5.) Memory loss or confusion – Sudden or gradual decline in memory that affects daily activities
- 6.) Tremors or difficulty walking – Shaking hands, slow movements, or frequent falls
For stroke symptoms (FAST: Face drooping, Arm weakness, Speech difficulty), call us immediately: Emergency: 0172-4008070 | WhatsApp: +91 90726-90726
