COVID-19 Information

Neurology and Stroke


Advanced Expertise is Your Best Medicine

Our expert neurological team is prepared to diagnose and treat conditions affecting the nervous system and brain such as strokes, seizures, and sleep disorders. Working in coordination with Barnes-Jewish Hospital, patients have access to the latest technology and expertise in a comfortable, community setting.

In St. Charles County, you have access to the expertise of Washington University physicians and Barnes-Jewish Hospital for immediate stroke and other neurological care. Progress West and Barnes-Jewish St. Peters Hospitals participate as full partners in an accredited stroke network that speeds the process to assess and treat stroke patients in the community.

Recognized in Stroke Excellence

After undergoing on-site evaluations and demonstrating compliance with nationally developed standards for stroke care, the hospitals have earned The Joint Commission’s Gold Seal of Approval™ for certification as Primary Stroke Centers. This certification is based on recommendations for primary stroke centers published by the Brain Attack Coalition and the American Stroke Association's statements and guidelines for stroke care.

At Progress West Hospital, patients can receive immediate stroke consultations with neurologists and neurosurgeons. They will determine the appropriate location for care, focusing on returning the patient to the community hospital setting as quickly as possible. Patients have access to emergency stroke care close to home, including consultations with Washington University neurologists.

Receiving immediate treatment is critical in stroke care. Know the warning signs and call 911 immediately if you think you are having a stroke.

Neurodiagnostic Testing

In addition to outstanding stroke care, the neurodiagnostic testing lab at Progress West Hospital offers a full range of tests for patients with onset of seizures, sleep disorders, changes in mental status and other disorders. Learn more about neurodiagnostic testing.
