Our Team

Caring for people with epilepsy takes a team approach and the Ayer Neuroscience Institute Epilepsy Center includes a variety of compassionate experts all focused on helping you achieve your personal goals and live as independently as possible.


Brian Munday, PA, explains how the care team works at the Comprehensive Epilepsy Center, Ayer Neuroscience Institute

Our epileptologists, or epilepsy experts, partner with each patient to determine the cause of the seizures and the best treatment. We get to know you personally–your habits and seizure experience–and we support you and your caregivers as you start treatment and work toward goals we help you set.

In addition, patients are supported by social workers and diagnostic technicians. As part of an institute, we also have access to a wide variety of providers who specialize in the function of the brain and we draw on their skills and input whenever necessary.
