Los Angeles answers for your child's brain health, written for parents.

If you're a parent in Los Angeles who has just watched your child zone out mid-sentence, develop a new tic, or complain of headaches that keep coming back, you know how lonely the next few hours feel. Search results swing between "totally normal" and "rare and serious," and neither answer tells you what your child, at their age, actually needs. SimplyPedsNeuro exists for that moment. Every explanation on our pages is written for parents, not clinicians, and every sign is described with the age band stated, because a staring spell at age 2 means something different than the same spell at age 12. We're honest about what's still uncertain, and we never publish medication doses on patient pages. You'll leave with a clearer sense of what's happening, how worried to be, and what to do next.

From the Valley to the Westside, Long Beach to Pasadena, families across greater Los Angeles face the same gap: pediatricians are stretched, and the threshold for a neurology referral is rarely clear. That's where we close the loop. When watching and waiting isn't enough, a visit request through SimplyPedsNeuro goes directly to Dr. Shawn Sedgh, MD, whose residency training spans both pediatrics (3 years) and neurology (3 years), covering children from birth through age 18 across seizures, headaches, tics, and developmental concerns. You'll know when a neurologist evaluation is the right next step, and you'll have a direct, in-person path to one, right here in LA.
