Dr. A K Roy is Consultant - Neurology at Manipal Hospital, Old Airport Road, Bengaluru. Current Manipal hospital-booking information reports 41 years of experience and lists advanced neurology qualifications including MD, DM in Neurology, FICP and FIAN. His long clinical practice spans disorders of the brain, spinal cord and peripheral nervous system.

His main areas include stroke and cerebrovascular disease, movement disorders, epilepsy, headache and peripheral nerve disorders. He also evaluates spinal-cord conditions, neurodegenerative disease and neurological symptoms that require correlation with imaging, electrophysiology or cognitive assessment before a definitive diagnosis is made.

Dr. Roy has longstanding involvement in neurological medicine and has been associated with professional fellowships in Indian medical and neurological organisations. His work includes assessment of acute and chronic neurological disease, medication management and coordination with rehabilitation services when patients have persistent weakness, gait problems, speech difficulties or functional impairment after neurological illness.

For a neurological opinion, useful records include MRI or CT scans, EEG, nerve-conduction or EMG studies, prior stroke imaging, medication history and previous specialist assessments. Treatment depends on the underlying diagnosis and may involve acute stroke care, anti-seizure medication, movement-disorder therapy, headache prevention or rehabilitation.

Progressive neurological symptoms may require additional imaging, laboratory studies or neuropsychological testing before a treatment plan is finalised. Follow-up may include rehabilitation, medication adjustment and repeat imaging according to the diagnosis and clinical course.
