Consultative & Therapeutic Neurology

Consultative & Therapeutic Neurology was founded in September of 1994, by Steven B. Inbody M.D., following his eight-year tenure on the academic faculty of Baylor’s Department of Neurology. This transition from academic neurology, to the private clinical setting, was motivated by his desire to develop a neurology clinic devoted to the comprehensive evaluation and treatment of patients in the ambulatory clinical setting.

The basic clinical goals underlying the development of Consultative & Therapeutic Neurology include:

• Restoring and protecting the quality time and communication necessary during each physician-patient encounter, which has often been sacrificed in the current health care environment.
• Preserving the comprehensive and intensive diagnostic techniques, including Electromyography (EMG), necessary for complex neurologic problems.
• Maintaining a state of the art, clinic-based infusion center, capable of providing the full spectrum of intravenous therapies currently indicated for neurologic disease.
• Implementation of a collaborative on-site physical therapy program offering comprehensive and intensive manual therapy techniques and neuromuscular massage.
• Developing and integrating an aquatic therapy program utilizing an advanced, current-based pool design.
• Facilitating the transition of indicated patients through a reconditioning program with neuromuscular re-education, supervised by an exercise physiologist.

Consultative and Therapeutic Neurology represents a collaboration in patient care, which has expanded Dr. Inbody's consultative practice to include a spectrum of therapies provided by on-site and full time healthcare professionals including: RNs with extensive ICU experience, pharmacist with clinic dedicated pharmacy, physical and aquatic therapists, and an exercise physiologist.

Dr. Inbody's clinical approach to patients with neurologic disease has developed from his 8 years as a physician-scientist while at Baylor, and more than 14 years in clinical practice. As an author of 23 scientific journal publications and book chapters, and a nationally recognized lecturer at medical conferences throughout the United States, Dr. Inbody currently treats patients from throughout the country and internationally. It is from this scientific platform that Dr. Inbody has utilized his clinical experience and academic background to guide his patient management decisions. His research interests include neuroimmunological diseases such as Inflammatory Neuropathies (ie. CIDP) & Myopathies, Multiple Sclerosis, Vasculitis, and Connective Tissue Disease. Other special interests include chronic pain and pain generating mechanisms, for which Dr. Inbody was honored with a co-appointment to the faculty of Baylors Department of Anesthesiology.

The accompanying curriculum vitae, lists Dr. Inbody's numerous publications in both peer-reviewed journals and chapters in authoritative neurology reference textbooks.
