Neurology consultation in Chisinau: when the pain comes from the nerves
Many cases of back pain, numbness or headaches have neurological causes. A neurologist on the same team as your rheumatologist means a faster, more accurate diagnosis.
Rheumatic and neurological diseases often overlap: a herniated disc causes pain that resembles rheumatic pain, neuropathies can accompany diabetes or autoimmune diseases, and lupus or vasculitis can affect the nervous system. That is why we are adding neurology to the Laromed team — so patients are not sent from one office to another.
A neurology consultation includes assessment of reflexes, sensation, muscle strength and coordination, interpretation of investigations (MRI, CT, electromyography) and a treatment or recovery plan, coordinated with your rheumatologist and physiotherapist.
The neurology service is launching soon at Laromed Clinic, Chisinau. Leave us a message and we will let you know when you can book.

Neurology consultation FAQ
Neurologist or rheumatologist for back pain?
If the pain radiates down your leg, with numbness or weakness, start with the neurologist; if it is inflammatory (at night, with morning stiffness, eased by movement), start with the rheumatologist. At Laromed, the two work together.
When does the service launch?
Soon. Leave us a message and we will let you know.
Are investigations done at the clinic?
The consultation includes interpretation of the investigations you already have; for MRI or EMG we refer you to partner centres.
