Dr. Rahul Nath Announces Formation of Texas Nerve and Paralysis Institute in Houston
Institute serves patients in all states who suffer from major nerve injuries.
Houston, TX (PRWEB via PR Web
Direct) February 3, 2005 -- Dr. Rahul Nath, a reconstructive microsurgeon at
the Texas Medical Center in Houston, Texas, announces the formation of the Texas Nerve and
Paralysis Institute at 2424 Holcombe, Suite 204 in Houston.
Dr. Nath,
who serves as the director of the Texas Nerve and Paralysis Institute, founded
the Institute to offer surgeries to both children and adult patients who suffer
from nerve injuries and unusual paralysis cases. Dr. Nath and his team
specialize in treating brachial plexus injuries, winging scapula injuries, prostate nerve
injuries, foot
drop, facial paralysis and nerve tumors.
"I'm in this profession
because I can see beautiful results from nerve paralysis surgery," said Dr.
Nath. "In some cases of nerve compression, paralysis can be reversed overnight
or in a few days."
Dr. Nath said that he and his team at the Texas Nerve
and Paralysis Institute take pride in providing state of the art care for
patients, including the use of a stand up MRI machine. They
treat patients from all over the Unites States, as well as a high percentage of
international patients. According to Texas Medical Center numbers, Dr. Nath
performed more than 500 peripheral nerve injury surgeries in 2003. He is
Board-certified by the American Board of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery.
Dr. Nath has individual Web sites devoted to each area of nerve surgery
in which he specializes. These areas and their respective Web sites are:
brachial plexus injury (www.drnathbrachialplexus.com); winging scapula injury (www.drnathwingingscapula.com); nerve tumor surgery (www.drnathnervetumor.com); foot drop (www.drnathfootdrop.com)
and impotence surgery (www.drnathimpotencesurgery.com).
Dr. Nath developed
the current decompression surgery to correct winging scapula injuries, as well
as several other surgical procedures to correct brachial plexus and prostate
nerve injuries.
In January of 2004, Dr. Nath performed winging scapula
surgery on South African swimmer and national record holder Eugene Botes. After
not being able to raise his right arm above his head in December 2003, Botes
finished third place in the 100-meter butterfly finals during the South African
Swimming Team Olympic Trials on April 19, 2004, qualifying for the 2004 Summer
Olympic Games in Athens.
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.
