    Approach to Diagnosis & Treatment Planning

    Dr. Mehta’s clinical process typically starts with a careful history and physical examination, followed by imaging review when available. When symptoms suggest nerve involvement or the diagnosis remains unclear, electrodiagnostic studies (such as EMG/NCS) may be used to help clarify nerve and muscle function. From there, patients collaborate with the care team on a stepwise plan that may include rehabilitative therapy, activity modification, image-guided procedures, and follow-up to reassess outcomes and function.
