Neurologist Serving Pearland, TX

Families in Pearland, TX trust Family Neurology and Neurodevelopmental Center for expert adult and pediatric neurology care. Our office is located at 3301 Plainview St, Suite 8, Pasadena, TX 77504 — accessible from Pearland via Beltway 8 (Sam Houston Tollway), which connects the two communities directly without going through downtown Houston traffic.

We offer board-certified, fellowship-trained neurology care for both children and adults, from first-seizure evaluations to lifelong epilepsy management, without the wait times or scheduling difficulty patients often face at larger Houston hospital systems.

Why Pearland Families Choose Family Neurology

Pearland has grown into one of the fastest-growing suburbs in the Houston area. That growth has brought excellent primary care and pediatric practices to Pearland — but specialized neurology, especially pediatric epilepsy care and in-office EEG testing, is still something most Pearland families have to travel for.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

Same-Practice Care for the Whole Family

From a newborn's first seizure evaluation to a grandparent's Parkinson's management, one practice handles it all as your family's needs change over time.

🧪

In-Office EEG Testing

Interpreted directly by our fellowship-trained epileptologist — no outsourcing to a third-party lab, and no waiting weeks for results.

🎓

Board-Certified Specialists

Trained at Baylor College of Medicine and Texas Children's Hospital — the same academic training found at major Houston medical centers.

💻

Telemedicine Follow-Ups

For stable, ongoing patients — reducing the number of round trips required once a treatment plan is established.

❤️

Private-Practice Feel

Shorter scheduling windows, direct physician access, and a team that gets to know your family.

What to Expect at Your First Visit

We know traveling outside your immediate area for a specialist can feel like an extra hurdle, so here's what a first visit looks like:

1

Before Your Visit

Our office will request relevant records so your physician has full context before you arrive.

2

Initial Consultation

A detailed history and neurological exam (45–60 minutes) with full developmental or symptom history.

3

In-Office Testing

EEG testing can often be scheduled same-day or on a quick follow-up, avoiding separate trips.

4

Treatment Plan

You'll leave with a clear plan, and follow-ups can often be handled via telemedicine.
