Epilepsy on the Move
Our epilepsy and seizures community of patients, family, friends and doctors have been on the move over the last few months celebrating November -National Epilepsy Month, sponsoring Epilepsy Services of NJ’s Walk for the One, and our doctors attended the American Epilepsy Society Meeting in Los Angeles, CA. A special shout out to Dr. Robert Trobliger for presenting two scientific posters and manning a third poster that was authored by Dr. Enrique Feoli.

Epilepsy Services of New Jersey’s Walk For The One took place.
This is a family friendly walk, complete with activities and resources to enjoy while helping ESNJ raise the necessary funds to improve the quality of life for those living with epilepsy and to spread awareness. NEREG was one of the sponsors of the walk.

November was National Epilepsy Awareness Month:
Our staff and patients spent 30 days of November shining a light on epilepsy and seizures and educating all who would listen.
Did you know that 1 in 26 people will be diagnosed with epilepsy at some point in their lifetime? Probably a majority of people you mention this to don't know this important statistic. There are many other equally significant facts to share this month.
