Advanced EMG testing and nerve conduction studies to diagnose muscle weakness, numbness, and unexplained symptoms.
Reviews
You’ve been dealing with numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness for weeks or months. Your primary care doctor suspects a nerve issue but needs concrete answers. That’s where EMG testing comes in.
Electromyography testing gives you definitive results about nerve and muscle function. Instead of guessing about what’s wrong, you’ll know if you’re dealing with a pinched nerve, muscle disorder, or something else entirely. This clarity means your treatment can target the actual problem, not just mask symptoms.
The test measures electrical activity in your muscles and nerves. When there’s damage or dysfunction, the patterns show up clearly on our equipment. You’ll leave with results the same day, plus a clear explanation of what they mean for your next steps.
We’ve been serving patients in Willowbrook and throughout Staten Island for years. Our physicians specialize in diagnosing and treating spine-related nerve disorders, which means we see these conditions every day.
We’re not a general practice trying to do everything. Nerve and muscle testing is what we do. Our EMG equipment is state-of-the-art, and our interpretation of results comes from extensive experience with these specific conditions.
You’ll work directly with our board-certified specialists who understand exactly what you’re going through. We’ve helped hundreds of local patients get the answers they needed to move forward with effective treatment.
Your EMG test starts with a consultation about your symptoms and medical history. We’ll explain exactly what we’re testing for and what you can expect during the procedure.
The actual test has two parts. First, we perform nerve conduction studies using small electrical pulses to measure how well your nerves transmit signals. Then we do the EMG portion, which involves inserting thin needles into specific muscles to measure electrical activity. Most patients describe the discomfort as similar to getting blood drawn.
The entire process typically takes 30-60 minutes depending on which nerves and muscles we need to test. You’ll get your results immediately, along with a detailed explanation of what we found. We’ll also coordinate with your referring physician to ensure your treatment plan addresses the specific issues we’ve identified.
Ready to get started?
Your EMG testing includes both electromyography and nerve conduction studies in one appointment. This comprehensive approach gives us a complete picture of both nerve function and muscle response, which is crucial for accurate diagnosis.
We test the specific areas related to your symptoms, whether that’s your arms, legs, back, or neck. Our equipment can detect even subtle changes in nerve conduction speed or muscle electrical activity that might indicate conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, pinched nerves, or muscle disorders.
You’ll receive a detailed report of findings that clearly explains what we discovered and what it means for your condition. We also handle all insurance billing and work with your referring physician to ensure your results guide your treatment plan effectively.
