Neuropsychology plays a vital role in the comprehensive care of patients with neurological conditions. At Dr. HK’s Neuro and Parkinson’s Clinic, our neuropsychology services focus on evaluating cognitive functions, managing emotional and behavioral changes, and providing rehabilitation strategies that support long-term well-being.
Many neurological disorders—such as Parkinson’s disease, movement disorders, stroke, epilepsy, head injuries, and dementia—can impact thinking abilities, mood, and daily functioning. Our specialized neuropsychology team helps patients and families understand these changes and equips them with the tools needed for effective coping, recovery, and adaptation.
What Do Neuropsychology Services Include?
Our comprehensive neuropsychology program combines assessment, counseling, therapy, and rehabilitation to promote cognitive and emotional health.

Visuospatial skills
Processing speed and mental flexibility
These assessments guide personalized treatment plans and help track changes over time.
