Epilepsy Surgery Service referrals

We welcome referrals from Epilepsy Specialist Nurses, Neurologists and GPs.

We run a very busy tertiary epilepsy surgery centre as part of a well-established Epilepsy Programme.

We work closely alongside the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery, Queen Square and Kings College Hospital, both leading centres for epilepsy research.

We are part of E-pilepsy - a European Reference Network (ERN) for people with rare and complex epilepsies - and also work closely with epilepsy charities, particularly SUDEP Action, Epilepsy Society and Epilepsy Action.

Criteria for an Epilepsy Surgery referral

We accept referrals if the patient:

has tried two or more anti-epileptic drugs (AED) that have not stopped or significantly reduced seizures
experiences focal seizures (seizures that begin in a specific area of the brain).

If you are a medical practitioner, and feel that a patient could be considered for surgery, please do contact us.
