Neuromuscular disorders affect the nerves and muscles that control movement and sensation, often leading to symptoms such as muscle weakness, numbness, difficulty breathing and impaired mobility. These conditions – ranging from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and muscular dystrophy to neuropathy, myopathy and myasthenia gravis – can be progressive and life-altering, requiring specialized, multidisciplinary care.
At Cleveland Clinic in Florida, patients benefit from a comprehensive, team-based approach to diagnosis and treatment. The Neurological Institute brings together neurologists, pulmonologists, physical and occupational therapists, speech pathologists, dietitians and social workers to deliver coordinated, compassionate care tailored to each patient’s needs.
Advanced diagnostic tools such as electromyography (EMG), nerve conduction studies, neuromuscular ultrasound and biopsies help pinpoint the exact nature of the disorder. Treatment plans may include intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG), plasmapheresis, targeted medications and rehabilitation therapies to manage symptoms and improve quality of life.
“Neuromuscular conditions can be complex and deeply personal,” says neurologist Morgan Jordan, D.O. “My goal is to help patients understand their diagnosis, explore treatment options and feel empowered throughout their care journey.”
With locations from South Florida to the Treasure Coast, including Tradition HealthPark Two in Port St. Lucie, Cleveland Clinic makes expert neuromuscular care accessible to communities throughout the Treasure Coast.
