Why Choose Us for Your Neurological Care?

We’re the largest neuro-oncology network on the West Coast and one of the highest-volume stroke centers in Los Angeles. But our world-class, expert care is just one of the reasons you can trust us with your neurological care – for everything from aneurysms to Parkinson’s disease to headaches. Here are five more:

No two patients are the same. That’s why we nurture a long-term relationship with you to manage your specific symptoms and condition. Your expert neurologists work with you and the rest of your multidisciplinary team to design a treatment and recovery plan that fits your needs. For example, if you’ve had a stroke, we guide you through comprehensive recovery, including educational materials and regular check-in calls. And for every patient, no matter your condition, we offer a wide range of services to treat your whole person – mind, body and spirit. This includes everything from exercise classes to support groups and spiritual care.

Our nationally recognized neurology specialists have expertise in even the rarest subspecialties. We partner with the Pacific Neuroscience Institute to provide fellowship-trained multidisciplinary teams that include neurologists, neurosurgeons and vascular neurologists. You have access to advanced treatment options such as our customized frameless deep brain stimulation, which is a fast, precise procedure that improves patient comfort and outcomes. And you are in the best possible hands – we have experience treating complex conditions such as brain tumors, movement disorders and neuro-ophthalmology.

Providence LCOM Torrance Neuroscience Institute offers options and hope to patients seeking the most advanced therapies for their neurological condition. One of our neurosurgeons pioneered the keyhole surgical approach, a minimally invasive surgery to remove a brain tumor that improves recovery times and patient outcomes. It’s now used by hospitals around the world.

We have published 17 research projects to improve stroke and neurovascular care since starting our comprehensive stroke center in 2017. Additionally, as our patient, you may have the opportunity to participate in one of our many neuroscience clinical trials in the areas of stroke, brain bleeds, neuro-oncology and stem cells. This groundbreaking research and innovation translate to better care – and a better life – for you and your loved ones.

At Providence LCOM Torrance Neuroscience Institute, we are committed to providing access to the best care to everyone in our diverse community. We respect and support the racial, ethnic, religious, gender, sexual and spiritual identities of each of our patients. We are deeply involved in the local community, offering educational events such as community lectures on movement disorders, stroke awareness programs and cooking courses to teach healthy habits. In keeping with our Mission, Providence offers financial assistance programs that provide free and low-cost care to those who are eligible.

Every neurological patient at Providence benefits from our deep expertise across many subspecialties. We are part of a collaborative network that includes award-winning physicians and research scientists across 51 hospitals in seven states. The power of this network is one of the reasons so many people choose Providence LCOM Torrance Neuroscience Institute for their neurological care each year.
