This page includes physicians in Convene Health's public directory whose profile lists Drug-Resistant Epilepsy as a clinical focus area, ranked by composite score (research output, peer recognition, frequency of care, and outcomes signals). Each profile is sourced from the NPI registry, peer-reviewed publication data, board certification records, and the physician's own bio where available.
