Specialist Care for Epilepsy, Stroke and Brain Disorders
Dr. Sameh diagnoses and treats conditions of the brain and nervous system — from seizures that have been difficult to control, to stroke, chronic headache and memory loss. Careful assessment, clear explanations, and a treatment plan you understand.
Neurological Care for Adults
Diagnosis, treatment and long-term follow-up for disorders of the brain, spinal cord and nerves.
Epilepsy & Seizures
Full assessment of first seizures and established epilepsy, including EEG interpretation, choice and adjustment of anti-seizure medication, and review of seizures that have stayed uncontrolled on previous treatment.
Stroke & TIA
Care after a stroke or mini-stroke: finding the underlying cause, controlling blood pressure, sugar and cholesterol to prevent a second event, and coordinating rehabilitation.
Headache & Migraine
Migraine, cluster and tension-type headache — separating the cause from the symptom, treating attacks effectively, and using preventive treatment to reduce how often they come.
Memory & Dementia
Assessment of memory complaints and confusion, including reversible causes that are easy to miss, early Alzheimer's and vascular dementia, with practical guidance for the family.
Movement Disorders
Parkinson's disease, tremor, dystonia and unsteady walking — accurate diagnosis, medication timed to your daily routine, and adjustment as symptoms change over the years.
MS & Nerve Disorders
Multiple sclerosis, numbness, weakness and nerve pain, including diabetic neuropathy — identifying which nerve is affected and treating the cause, not only the pain.
About Dr. Sameh
Dr. Sameh is a consultant neurologist with more than two decades of clinical experience, and a particular interest in epilepsy and disorders of the brain. He is a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians (FRCP), London, and holds a PhD from the UCL Queen Square Institute of Neurology, London. Much of his work involves patients who have already been seen elsewhere — seizures that keep returning despite treatment, headaches without a clear cause, or a diagnosis that has never quite fitted the symptoms.
His approach starts with the history. Most neurological diagnoses are made by listening carefully to what happened and examining the patient properly; scans and EEG then confirm or exclude, rather than lead. Patients leave the consultation knowing what their condition is, why the treatment was chosen, and what to watch for.

The Right Diagnosis First
Unhurried history-taking and a full neurological examination. Tests are ordered to answer a specific question — not as a substitute for assessment.
Evidence-Based Treatment
Medication chosen on current international guidelines and on what suits your age, other illnesses and daily life — including plans for pregnancy.
Explained Clearly
Neurological conditions are frightening when they are not understood. You and your family will be told what is happening in plain language.

Before Your First Visit
Bringing these makes the consultation far more useful:
- description Any previous reports — MRI, CT, EEG or nerve conduction studies, including the images themselves if you have them
- medication A list of every medication you take, with the doses — and which ones you have tried before and stopped
- group For seizures, blackouts or memory problems: someone who has witnessed an episode. Their description is often the most valuable part of the assessment
- edit_calendar A note of when symptoms started, how often they happen and how long they last
A seizure lasting more than five minutes, sudden weakness on one side, sudden difficulty speaking or the worst headache of your life is an emergency. Go to the nearest emergency department — do not wait for a clinic appointment.
