Why patients from this area come to us
Most Maninagar patients come for one of a few reasons: seizure diagnosis, blackout vs seizure confusion, treatment that is not working well, EEG interpretation, or a second opinion before a major medication or surgery decision. Our neurologists Dr. Rutul Shah and Dr. Abhishek Gohel are available depending on the clinical need and appointment plan.
Focused epilepsy care
Seizure diagnosis, epilepsy classification, medication planning, and surgery evaluation when the case has outgrown routine treatment.
Tests with context
Routine EEG, planning for Video EEG monitoring, and report interpretation tied to the actual history instead of whatever one-line impression got copied forward.
Second opinions that matter
Useful when treatment has drifted, the diagnosis still feels shaky, or the family wants a steadier opinion before changing medicines or choosing the next hospital step.
Travel and access from your area
Getting to the clinic
For Maninagar patients, there are 2 practical paths. One is local consultation availability in Maninagar. The other is referral onward for the heavier work, especially if Video EEG, surgery evaluation, or more involved epilepsy planning is needed.
Clinic address: 1st Floor, 112-114, Elite Magnum, Near Solaris, Bhuyangdev Cross, Sola Road, Ahmedabad 380061.
Route landmarks
Common route markers include Maninagar railway side roads, Kankaria approach, Ashram Road connectors, Memnagar, Bhuyangdev Cross, and Elite Magnum near Solaris on Sola Road.
If it is your first visit, call first. Nobody needs a scavenger hunt in traffic with a sick patient in the back seat.
Before you travel
Bring old prescriptions, MRI films or discs, EEG reports, discharge summaries, and a short seizure timeline. It makes the consult less repetitive and a lot more useful.
Common reasons families book from this area
Seizure or blackout diagnosis
When the events are still not clearly named: seizure, fainting, sleep event, non-epileptic event, or something else.
Drug-resistant epilepsy
When 2 or more medicines have failed and the next step needs a real plan.
Headache, neuropathy, or neurology review
Not every visit is epilepsy. Some come for migraine, neuropathy, focal symptoms, or a second opinion on chronic neurological problems.
Advanced planning
Video EEG, surgery workup, PNES evaluation, pregnancy planning in epilepsy, and the more complicated follow-up cases.
Who you will see
Both doctors are NIMHANS-trained neurologists with epilepsy fellowship exposure. This is why many patients are willing to come across town for a more focused opinion.

View ProfileFrequently asked questions
Yes. Our neurologists Dr. Rutul Shah and Dr. Abhishek Gohel are available for consultation based on the clinical need and appointment plan. If advanced epilepsy evaluation is needed, further testing may still be planned at the main clinic or hospital setup.
Usually when seizures remain uncontrolled, blackout episodes are still unexplained, medicines keep changing without much clarity, or the family needs help deciding about Video EEG or surgery evaluation.
Yes. Bring prior prescriptions, MRI scans, EEG reports, discharge summaries, and a seizure diary if you have one. For booking or confirmation, the hospital listing shows a contact number, but I would still confirm the slot before leaving because appointment-based OPDs can move around.
For an active seizure lasting more than 5 minutes, repeated seizures, injury, or reduced responsiveness, call 108 or go to the nearest emergency setup. Routine OPD clinics are not emergency departments.
