The health and safety of our patients and staff is our highest priority, and we are closely monitoring and following the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) guidance provided by the World Health Organization and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Once again, several of our board-certified pediatric neurologists (and a certain special rheumatologist) from Child Neurology Consultants of Austin were named “SuperDoctors” and “TopDoctors” from Texas Monthly and Austin Monthly respectively.

Our Far West clinic closed Feb. 1. A new, larger clinic will open just down the road in late summer/early fall 2020. In the meantime, all Far West doctors and staff have been temporarily relocated to our existing Cedar Park and South Austin clinics. Phone and fax numbers remain the same.

Effective immediately, Child Neurology Consultants of Austin is reinstated as an in-network provider with United Healthcare (UHC). This means that all patients with a UHC plan will not have their care interrupted.
