Expert Neurological Evaluation in NYC

If you have ongoing memory loss, poor concentration, or cognitive decline, it is important to see a specialist. These symptoms may be linked to:

  • Brain tumors or brain cancer

  • Stroke or mini-strokes (TIAs)

  • Vascular problems affecting blood flow to the brain

  • Other neurological disorders

Our neurologists provide comprehensive evaluations to determine the cause of your symptoms and recommend the right treatment plan.

Advanced On-Site Diagnostic Testing

At 14 Street Medical Arts, you don’t have to wait weeks for answers. We offer same-day diagnostic testing in NYC:

  • Brain MRI in Manhattan – Detects tumors, cancer, or other brain abnormalities

  • MR Angiogram (MRA) – Shows blood flow inside brain vessels

  • Carotid Doppler Ultrasound – Evaluates blood supply from the neck to the brain

  • Electroencephalogram (EEG) test in NYC – Detects seizures and early signs of epilepsy

These advanced imaging services help us quickly rule out or confirm serious conditions.

Cognitive Testing for Memory and Attention

Not all memory issues are caused by clinical conditions. We also provide cognitive testing in NYC through Evoked Potential Studies, which measure:

  • Memory function

  • Concentration levels

  • Motor skills

This test provides immediate results and helps us determine if your symptoms are neurological, cognitive, or psychiatric. If needed, we can refer you to a psychiatrist for additional treatment.

We accept most major insurance plans including:

  • Medicaid

  • Medicare

  • Aetna

  • Blue Cross Blue Shield

  • Cigna

  • MagnaCare

  • Emblem Health

  • UnitedHealthcare

  • Fidelis

  • Affinity Plans

For patients with high deductibles or those paying out of pocket, we offer a self-pay option with deep discounts. You can skip the wait for insurance authorizations and get your MRI, EEG, or other test done the same day.
