Hannu Virtanen

My core areas of expertise are in particular the diagnostics, treatment and rehabilitation of brain injuries, cerebrovascular disorders and spinal cord injuries, as well as the diagnostics and treatment of neurological symptoms such as headaches, dizziness and sensory disturbances. I listen to the patient and strive to build a common understanding of even complex situations. 

Please note the following:

- I only treat adult patients (over 16 years of age). (The age limit for pediatric neurology and adult neurology is usually 16 years of age.)

- I do not perform botulinum toxin or other injection treatments.

- I do not assess, investigate or treat disorders within the field of neuropsychiatry such as ADHD and autism spectrum disorders. (The above-mentioned issues that fall under the field of neuropsychiatry for adult patients are primarily examined and treated in the specialty of psychiatry.)

- It is a good idea to bring previous medical records with you to the appointment if you have any medical records that do not appear in the electronic medical records of Pihlajalinna or Kanta.
