Summary
- Dr. Elizabeth Ng is a child neurologist specializing in pediatric epileptic seizures and neuromuscular disorders, as well as an academic clinician-educator in clinical neurophysiology and electrodiagnostic medicine. She holds faculty appointments as assistant professor of pediatrics and neurology at the University of Connecticut School of Medicine and adjunct assistant professor of pediatrics at the Frank H. Netter MD School of Medicine at Quinnipiac University. She is also a clinical trial investigator at the Connecticut Children’s Research Institute. Dr. Ng’s career pursuit of pediatric neurology was not linear; prior to becoming a pediatric epileptologist and neuromuscular neurologist, she practiced general pediatrics for a decade—a gratifying and introspective period that deepened her empathy and commitment to caring for children with neurological conditions. In addition to her clinical roles at the NAEC Level 4 Pediatric Epilepsy Center, the Pediatric MDA/Neuromuscular Clinic, and the Brachial Plexus/Peripheral Nerve Injury Clinic, Dr. Ng directs the AANEM-accredited Electrodiagnostic Laboratory at Connecticut Children’s.
Dr. Ng holds specialty/subspecialty board certifications in General Pediatrics, Child Neurology, Epilepsy, Epilepsy Monitoring, Neuromuscular Medicine, and Electrodiagnostic Medicine.
