About Specialists in Pediatric Neurology PLLC (SPN):

Specialists in Pediatric Neurology PLLC (SPN) is a premier practice in southeast Michigan specializing in Pediatric Neurology and Epilepsy care. The practice will utilize the same highly regarded, innovative, patient and family-oriented care model Dr. Arndt created during his 12 year tenure at Beaumont Childrens as chief of pediatric neurology & director of the NAEC level IV comprehensive pediatric epilepsy program. The multidisciplinary care team approach helped foster the development of Beaumont Children's first nationally recognized pediatric specialties (Pediatric Neurology, Pediatric Epilepsy) by 2014, servicing quaternary level care and multiple national distinctions, without losing the personalized approach for primary pediatric neurology evaluations. Patients and families will significantly benefit from new, innovative in-office and in-home diagnostics and care models that can be offered in a private practice office setting.
