Advanced diagnostic testing that pinpoints exactly what’s causing your pain, numbness, or weakness so you can move forward with the right treatment.
Reviews
You’ve been dealing with numbness, tingling, or weakness for months. Maybe your doctor suspects nerve damage or a muscle disorder, but you need concrete answers before you can get the right treatment.
That’s exactly what nerve and muscle testing provides. Through electromyography (EMG) and nerve conduction studies, we measure how well your nerves send signals and how your muscles respond. No more guessing about whether you have carpal tunnel, pinched nerves, neuropathy, or muscle weakness.
The results give your doctor a clear roadmap for treatment. Whether that means physical therapy, medication, injections, or surgery, you’ll know you’re pursuing the right path because the diagnosis is accurate. Most patients tell us the relief of finally having answers is worth it alone.
We’ve been serving Staten Island residents for years, specializing in spine and nerve disorders that affect daily life. Our physicians are board-certified and experienced in interpreting complex diagnostic tests.
We’ve performed thousands of nerve conduction studies and EMG tests for patients throughout Randall Manor and the surrounding areas. Our team understands that you’re not just looking for test results – you want answers that lead to real solutions.
The diagnostic equipment we use meets the highest medical standards, and our technicians are trained to ensure accurate results every time. We work directly with your referring physician to make sure nothing gets lost in translation.
The entire process typically takes 30-60 minutes, depending on which nerves and muscles we’re evaluating. For the nerve conduction study, we place small electrodes on your skin and send mild electrical pulses to measure how fast and strong your nerve signals are.
The EMG portion involves inserting a thin needle electrode into specific muscles to record their electrical activity. Yes, there’s some discomfort, but most patients tolerate it well and say it’s less painful than they expected.
You’ll get results the same day in most cases. We’ll explain what the findings mean in plain language and provide a detailed report to your referring doctor. If we find nerve damage, muscle weakness, or other issues, we’ll discuss the next steps for treatment. The goal is always to give you clarity about your condition so you can make informed decisions about your care.

Our nerve and muscle testing covers a wide range of conditions affecting Staten Island residents. We diagnose carpal tunnel syndrome, ulnar neuropathy, sciatica, diabetic neuropathy, and various muscle disorders that cause weakness or pain.
The testing process includes both motor and sensory nerve evaluations, so we can pinpoint exactly where problems are occurring. We also assess muscle function to determine if weakness is coming from the nerve, the muscle itself, or the connection between them.
Most insurance plans cover these diagnostic procedures when medically necessary. We handle the authorization process and work with your insurance company to minimize your out-of-pocket costs. Our staff will verify your coverage before your appointment so there are no surprises.
