Our Approach to Life-Changing Neurology Care

Home to the largest pediatric neuroscience team in Nebraska and the surrounding region, Boys Town Pediatric Neurology believes in a comprehensive patient-centered approach to care.

Life-Changing Care in Action: Zax's Story

Christmas of 2018, Zax Doyle had his first seizure, caused by a genetic mutation called KCNA2. Wanting the best for Zax, his mom called Boys Town Pediatric Neurology and made an appointment to see Boys Town Neurologist Valeria Naranjo, M.D.

From medication, to diet changes, to comprehensive therapies to help Zax reach his milestones, Dr. Naranjo left no stone unturned in her cutting-edge treatment plan – a plan that has drastically decreased Zax's seizure frequency and allows him to live a normal, happy childhood.

Watch the story of Zax's life-changing care below.​​
