Seeking Epileptologist- Boston, MA

Topic: Living With Epilepsy - Adults
My neurologist specializes in Multiple Sclerosis, Alzheimers, and Dementia. She would be happy to refer to a neurolgist who specializes in Epilepsy me if she has a name. Anyone know of a good Epileptologist treating adults in the Boston area?

I saw Dr. Andrew Cole at Massachusetts General Hospital and I was very impressed with him. He is an excellent doctor and one of the top in his field. Here is a link about him. His phone number is 617-726-3311 http://www.massgeneral.org/neurology/epilepsy/Teaching/fellow.html

hmmmmmm....I wonder if MGH is where I should go? Now I am officially indecisive. I believe I will now ping pong back-n-forth in my mind and try to decide. Perhaps a coin toss shall settle this...

Hi, OK not to perplex you more, but I saw Dr. Bromfield at Brigham and Women's. I think the three of us have covered the Boston Area. There are many doctors in the neurology department and they are all top notch. I was on disability for six months because I was having seizures all the time. Now, I have been seizure free for six months.
