At the Mass General Brigham (MGB) Small Fiber and Autonomic Neurology (SFAN) Program, our physicians offer comprehensive evaluations, second opinion consultations, and ongoing expert management for patients with suspected or confirmed autonomic disorders.
Our expert team of physicians, advanced practice providers, nurses, autonomic technicians, trainees, and support staff are dedicated to the care of patients with disorders of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) and somatic small nerve fibers. Neurology residents, neuromuscular fellows, and other fellows and trainees often rotate through our outpatient clinic to learn how to deliver world-class care.
Neurology at Mass General Brigham comprises a diverse yet integrated array of specialized clinical services, including evaluation and management of both inpatients and outpatients, second opinions for complex cases, diagnostic testing and care for the most critically ill.
This collaborative approach enables our team to provide patients with the care they need in a comprehensive and patient focused approach, providing a greater measure of safety, convenience and satisfaction.
Our mission is to provide the best neurological care to patients and their families, create new methods for evaluation and management of neurological diseases and train the next generation of practitioners and academic neurologists.
