"I'm in this profession because I can see beautiful results," says Dr. Rahul K. Nath of nerve paralysis surgery. "In some cases of nerve compression, paralysis can be reversed overnight or in a few days."

Dr. Nath, the director of the Texas Nerve and Paralysis Institute, accomplishes this by offering full service for unusual paralysis cases. Typically, the Texas Nerve and Paralysis Institute addresses brachial plexus, winging scapula, foot drop, facial paralysis, nerve tumors and movement disorders (such as Parkinson's disease). Because of his national reputation for surgery of complex and major nerve injuries, Dr. Nath receives patients from all 50 states (as well as a high percentage of international patients).
Dr. Nath is a widely published author, as well as a member of the American Society for Peripheral Nerve, the American Association for the Advancement of Science and the Houston Neurological Society. He has been named one of "America's Top Doctors" every year since 2001 and travels internationally to lecture and give instructional courses on nerve injury and management. Dr. Nath has been granted a United States patent for developing a nerve repair system and has a patent pending for a molecular biologic agent to block scars in nerves.
