Dr. Julian Ungar is a neurologist with experience in electrodiagnosis, including E.M.G., E.E.G., and evoked potentials. He is also experienced in pain management and uses a variety of techniques such as trigger point injection therapy when conventinoal physical therapy and chiropractic treatment has been completed.

Dr. Ungar trained in England and did his residency and fellowship at Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center in New York and has held teaching positions in the Medical College of Pennsylvania as well as Harvard Medical School.

As a neurologist, Dr. Ungar is highly trained to treat disorders of the nervous system, which include diseases of the brain, spinal cord, nerves, and muscles. Some of the more common problems that neurologists diagnose and treat are strokes, epilepsy (seizures), headaches, dementias (Alzheimer's disease), multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, and various forms of pain. Neurologists may serve as consultants to other physicians and may provide long-term care to patients with chronic neurological disorders.

Dr. Ungar is sympathetic to alternative strategies when conventional treatment fails. He is concerned about the human dimension of pain and suffering.
