You’ve been dealing with numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness for too long. Maybe your fingers go numb at night, or your leg feels weak when you walk. Your doctor suspects nerve damage, but you need answers.
EMG testing gives you those answers. This diagnostic procedure measures how well your nerves and muscles communicate, pinpointing exactly where problems exist. No more guessing about whether that tingling in your hands is carpal tunnel or something else.
When you know what’s actually happening in your body, you can make informed decisions about treatment. Some conditions improve with simple changes. Others need immediate attention. Either way, you’ll have the facts you need to move forward.
We’ve been serving East Flatbush and surrounding Brooklyn communities for years. Our doctors specialize in diagnosing nerve and muscle disorders, not treating everything under the sun.
You’re not just getting a test. You’re getting specialists who understand how nerve conditions affect your daily life. We’ve seen thousands of cases and know how to explain your results in plain language.
Our facility uses advanced EMG and nerve conduction study equipment. But more importantly, we take time to make sure you understand what’s happening during your test and what your results mean for your health.
Your EMG test starts with a consultation about your symptoms. We need to understand exactly what you’re experiencing and when it happens. This helps us focus the testing on the right areas.
The nerve conduction study comes first. Small electrodes placed on your skin send mild electrical pulses to measure how fast signals travel through your nerves. You’ll feel brief sensations, but nothing painful. This part usually takes 15-20 minutes.
Next is the electromyography portion. A thin needle electrode is inserted into specific muscles to measure electrical activity. We listen to the sounds your muscles make and watch the patterns on a screen. This shows whether muscle weakness comes from nerve damage or muscle problems.
Most complete EMG testing takes 30-45 minutes. You’ll get preliminary results right away, with a detailed report sent to you and your referring doctor within a few days.

Your EMG testing includes both nerve conduction studies and electromyography in one appointment. No need to schedule separate visits or travel to different locations. The testing covers upper and lower extremities as needed based on your symptoms.
You’ll receive a thorough explanation of your results before you leave. We’ll show you exactly what the test found and what it means for your condition. If nerve damage is present, you’ll understand the severity and likely causes.
The detailed report includes specific measurements and recommendations for treatment. This information gets sent directly to your referring physician, but you’ll also receive a copy. Many patients find it helpful to have their own records when discussing treatment options.
All testing is performed by board-certified specialists using the latest EMG equipment. We maintain strict safety and cleanliness standards, and most major insurance plans are accepted.
