  • Interpret EEG recordings and other neurological tests.
  • Manage anti-seizure medications and discuss treatment options.
  • Evaluate patients for advanced therapies, including epilepsy surgery or neuromodulation.
  • Work with multidisciplinary care teams and educate patients and families.
  • Contribute to clinical research, teaching, or program development when required.

Qualifications for Epileptologist Roles

These positions typically require a medical degree, completion of a neurology residency, and fellowship training in clinical neurophysiology or epilepsy. Employers generally require board certification or eligibility in neurology, along with an active medical license for the state where care is provided. Specific requirements vary by employer, seniority, and clinical focus.

Where Epileptologists Work
