January is the perfect time to take charge of your health. And now, seeing a neurologist at Minneapolis Clinic of Neurology is easier and faster than ever.
We’re proud to share that a referral is no longer required to schedule many of our neurology appointments.
If you’ve been waiting on care—or just unsure where to start—you can now contact us directly and request to be seen without the extra step.
Why No Referral?
Traditionally, neurology clinics required referrals from a primary care provider to start care. But that extra step often delayed evaluations for symptoms like migraines, numbness, dizziness, or memory changes.
To improve access, Minneapolis Clinic of Neurology has removed the referral barrier for many services.
Now, you can:
- Contact us directly to schedule an appointment
- Get evaluated sooner for new or worsening symptoms
- Take action without waiting for a provider to initiate the process
Meet Our Be Seen Sooner Providers
Our clinic is growing—and that means faster access to expert care. We’ve added new providers across locations who are accepting new patients sooner.
Here are some of the providers who can see you faster:
- Dr. Jessica Piché – MS Specialist (Edina)
- Dr. Beth Ann Staab – Neuromuscular disorders and Epilepsy (Coon Rapids)
- Dr. Shelly Larson-Peters – MS & Headache (Coon Rapids)
- Dr. Gerald Dove – Epilepsy specialist, Clinical Neurophysiology, General Neurology (Golden Valley)

Not sure if neurology is the right next step? Here are signs you should call:
- Recurring or worsening headaches
- Sudden numbness, tingling, or balance issues
- Memory changes or confusion
- Seizures or unexplained episodes

If you’ve said “I’ll wait and see” more than once—it’s time to be seen sooner.
