Dr. Daniel Phillips, the founder of Neurological and Electrodiagnostic Institute (NEI) of Saint Louis, received a Bachelor of Science with Highest Honors from Northwestern University in Electrical Engineering with a sub-specialty in Biomedical Engineering and Neurophysiology. He earned his medical degree at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, where he was awarded the prestigious O'Leary Award in Neurosciences and the Brookings Award for Academic Achievement. He completed his neurology training at Washington
University and Barnes Hospital, where he also served as Neurology chief resident.
With over 25 years of clinical experience, Dr. Phillips has made significant contributions in the field of neurology. He has participated in clinical trials of new therapeutic agents for the treatment of neuromuscular disease, founded the Missouri Baptist Acute Inpatient Rehabilitation Unit and is an Assistant Professor of Neurology at Washington University.
Dr. Phillips%u2019s combined training in both clinical neurology and electrical/ biomedical engineering give him unique expertise in his specialty of Electrodiagnostic Medicine (EDX). EDX uses neurophysiologic techniques such as nerve conduction studies (NCV)
and electromyography (EMG) to study medical conditions affecting the peripheral nervous system. Dr. Phillips is board certified in both Neurology and Electrodiagnostic Medicine, and is a member and fellow of the American Association of Neuromuscular and Electrodiagnostic Medicine (AANEM). He currently serves on two subcommittees of the AANEM involved in standards of quality in the education, training, and practice of Electrodiagnostic Medicine.
He runs the only AANEM accredited electrodiagnostic lab in Missouri, and is one of only a few labs in the country to be awarded Exemplary status.
With 27 years of clinical experience and 10 years of exclusive focus on nerve conduction and EMG studies, Dr Phillips has personally performed over 40,000 of these complex technical procedures, making him a recognized expert and one of the most experienced such clinicians in the country. His detailed understanding and analysis of these studies and how they are applied in the evaluation, diagnosis and treatment of patients with diseases of the
peripheral nervous system allows him to help referring physicians
and surgeons, (orthopedists, neurosurgeons, hand specialists, internists and
others), gather the information necessary to correctly diagnose and treat
their patients for the best possible outcomes.
