Greenville Neuromodulation Services


About Us
New indications are emerging and new products and technologies are being developed rapidly, because of this there is no “standard procedure” for the DBS surgical process. We believe it is imperative to understand the fundamentals of the process and are dedicated to teaching them as well as continually keeping up on research developments that will enhance the future of DBS. The courses we offer are only part of the process. We want to develop relationships with each attendee and support them through their development.

The Need
Neuromodulation has proven to be a rapidly growing field in the Neuroscience industry. Due to this growth, there is a recognized need for a coordinated program of professional training, worldwide technical assistance, support to medical staff, and a full range of quality patient support services for the diagnosis and treatment of movement disorders using targeted electrical current and/or drug injection to the brain neuromodulation. The growth in this industry will provide opportunities for medical developments and discoveries that will alleviate pain and suffering, and improve quality of life.

The Response
To establish a higher standard of patient care and technical knowledge in the industry. GNS will offer specialized training sessions developed by experts in the industry for professional and technical level individuals seeking further knowledge in neuromodulation brain therapies, neuropsychology, metal micro-electrode recording, and deep brain stimulation. We will also offer technical and support courses for support staff personnel involved in the surgical process of deep brain stimulation. Our Support services will further assist in the care and treatment of patients with movement disorders by offering technical support services and expert advice and analysis via the internet for equipment used, pre-op planning, recording assistance during the procedure and post-op programming to professionals requiring assistance and support after the course, and/or for professionals that may not have the staff to accommodate providing these services.
