About John Arlen Parker, MD
John Parker, MD, is an independent neurologist with a fellowship in clinical neurophysiology at Ascension Saint Thomas in Nashville, Tennessee. He uses advanced technology to evaluate the brain, spinal cord and nerves. Dr. Parker specializes in the interpretation of diagnostic tests for epilepsy and sleep disorders.
He starts by listening to better understand you and your concerns. Neurophysiology tests are used to evaluate the electrical current in your brain and how it flows through the spinal cord and nerves. These tests help you and your doctor understand how epilepsy or a sleep disorder may be affecting your mental acuity (your ability to reason, focus and recall information.) Having a neurodiagnostic evaluation can help you and your neurologist when you are making decisions about your treatment options.
