Dr James Rakshi
Consultant Neurologist
MB, ChB, MD, FRCP
I am a General Neurologist whose experience covers the complete range of acute and chronic neurological disorders. I have a genuine interest in the broad spectrum of neurological conditions and am often referred complex challenging cases.
Through my wide general and neurological experience, I have gained particular experience in neurological complications of general medical conditions.
I have also gained particular experience and expertise in neuro-rehabilitation covering stroke, multiple sclerosis, head injury and functional disorders having worked in several units and having been in charge of running my own unit. I am currently planning to set up a Parkinson’s disease neuro-rehabilitation unit.
My clinical practice encompasses all aspects of headache, fits, faints, funny turns and dizzy spells, Parkinson's disease and abnormal movements, stroke, memory impairment, lower back and neck problems and sensory symptoms of numbness, tingling and pain. I also treat peripheral nerve problems, neurological complications of general medical conditions, as well as Alzheimer's disease, epilepsy, movement disorders and multiple sclerosis.

Personal profile
I love travelling whether it is within the UK or to far-flung places, which I try to combine with wildlife and landscape photography whenever I can. I am an avid Chelsea fan, and try to go to as many games as possible. I enjoy sports but particularly swimming.
