Established in 2006, the Wyoming Epilepsy Center has served as a regional referral destination for people affected by seizures across the 4 state area. While patients come from all around the region are seen by our specialists from across Wyoming, follow ups may be done at hometown outreach clinics or arranged by tele-health. Outpatient evaluations may include electroencephalogram (EEG) done in one of our offices. More extensive evaluation might include prolonged Ambulatory EEG done in the home or admission to our Epilepsy Monitoring Unit (EMU) at Wyoming Medical Center in Casper. We have a full suite of services needed to diagnose and treat almost all patients suffering from seizures. Our program is nationally recognized and is fully accredited as a level 3 Epilepsy Center by the National Association of Epilepsy Centers (NAEC).
Referral Guidelines for seizure disorders have been established by the NAEC. Delayed or denied referral may be detrimental to the patient’s health, safety and quality of life.

• If your seizures have not been brought under control after three months of care by a primary care provider (family physician, pediatrician), further neurologic intervention by a neurologist, or an epilepsy center if locally available, is appropriate.
• If you are seeing a general neurologist, and your seizures have not been brought under control after 12 months, you should insist upon a referral to a specialized epilepsy center with an epileptologist.
