In patient neurologists get called a lot for stroke patients. Out patient neurologists see everything from neuropathic pain, MS, parkinson's, seizures, run sleep clinics, and see other neuro problems. Procedures you get to do include EMG's, LP's, and you can read EEG's too. It's mainly a lot of a lot of diagnosing and managing meds. Most of their treatments are pretty weak though, especially for stroke. I'm doing neuro now, and I see patients with major strokes, spend hours figuring out where they had their lesion, give them the full work up (carotid duplex, MRI, echo), then send them home on aspirin only.
