Normal-Pressure Hydrocephalus
Early Diagnosis, Expert Treatment
NPH is a treatable condition that can mimic other forms of dementia, often causing difficulty walking, memory problems, and bladder control issues. Because early and accurate diagnosis is key, our streamlined evaluation process includes outpatient assessments and inpatient monitoring to determine the best course of treatment.
The St. Luke's NPH program evaluates patients through a streamlined process that includes an initial neurosurgery consultation, outpatient evaluation by physical therapy and neuropsychology, and an inpatient NPH evaluation. Consult with your primary care provider for a referral.
Whether you're seeking answers or exploring surgical options, our team is here to help restore function and improve quality of life with compassionate, evidence-based care.
We offer you clinical expertise, advanced training and a strong focus on achieving your best possible health outcome.
