Please see the HEENT exam for details: • The HEENT Physical Exa... .
The complete neurologic physical examination, as demonstrated by Dr. Victor Sung, professor of Neurology at the University of Alabama at Birmingham School of Medicine.

Dr. Sung you are a fabulous teacher! Thank you for demonstrating & explaining the neurological exam. And thanks to Erin for being a compliant patient.

[@E46FastChick]

This is the most complete neuro exam I have found yet! Thank you for putting this together as this has seriously aided me in sharpening my examination skills.

[@shayaanp9207]

Thank you so much for the wonderful demonstration of the neuro exam and along with the clinical pearls you gave was as a cherry on top. Please keep on posting more videos. I am starting my Neurology residency this year

[@khaledm.elrefaey3798]

This provides a well organized and concise approach that can be used by non neurologist to examine and screen their patients in 10 minutes. I also liked the fact that I am listening to a neurologist take on the classic approach and he has generously provided us with his own practical approach that can be used in daily practice. Hats off

[@NOODLEDOC1]

This is cool. I am due to be examined by a neurologist next week. I'm a 27 year old. Over 1 year and a half I've been having odd 'nerve pains.' electric shock feelings in my legs with a whole body sensation of my bones feeling crushed. I was diagnosed with osteoarthritis of the jaw joint a CT scan revealed joint deterioration. Well then I was heavily medicated with all kinds of meds for arthritis, depression,anxiety, blood pressure spikes. I dropped weight from 110 to 102 pounds. After that my dr thought it wasn't necessary to be on all the medications, so he told me to wean off them all. Now I'm not on any meds. I'm really confused what I'm supposed to be doing. I was born a 1 pound preemie and he told me sometimes preemies have neuro problems in adulthood. Other than that I do pretty well, I have a job I'm a home health aide. I take care of people in their homes and I'm in college. I'm just really confused on what my diagnosis is or what my plan of care is. Maybe the neurologist can help me?

[@anuragkushwaha8078]

Do yoga exercises and eat healthy.....topical for joint pain if sever get nsaid. Rule our cord compression by MRI. Get well soon.

"I found that in alabama you have to be careful about using the phrase "show me your teeth" Why is that?

[@everburningblue]

Alabama residents are not supplied with some basic humanitarian needs, including dental. This can lead to a shame reaction if they are asked to show their full teeth.

[@princeoculoplastico]
