Dementia care at Centro de Neurología Avanzada (CNA) in Seville, Spain, includes assessment, medical treatment, cognitive support, and surgery. Its dedicated Dementia Unit brings neurologists, neuropsychiatrists, neuropsychologists, and cognitive stimulation together, with access to amyloid and brain perfusion PET.
The assessment can help identify the type and stage of cognitive decline, including potentially reversible causes.
CNA offers these anti-amyloid treatments to selected patients after specialist assessment and confirmation of disease biomarkers.
Both treatments target a biological process linked to Alzheimer’s rather than symptoms alone. Their use requires specific accreditation, clinical experience, biomarker confirmation, and specialized follow-up.
When dementia symptoms relate to normal pressure hydrocephalus, surgery may include cerebral endoscopy or a valve to divert cerebrospinal fluid. The valve can route fluid to the abdomen through a ventriculo-peritoneal or lumbo-peritoneal shunt. This condition can cause walking problems, cognitive decline, and urinary urgency. Early diagnosis and surgery may make this form of dementia reversible.
Care may combine diagnostic testing, assessment for anti-amyloid treatment, medication, cognitive stimulation, magnetic stimulation, lifestyle changes, and scheduled follow-up. Patients can request a consultation through Bookimed.

Centro de Neurología Avanzada (CNA) is a private neurology center in Sevilla, Spain. The clinic operates across multiple sites and provides multidisciplinary care for adults and children. Its medical team includes 20 doctors who specialize in neurology, neurosurgery, and psychiatry. The Sevilla facility has nine consultation rooms and four waiting areas.
The clinic treats roughly 35,000 patients every year. Within the dedicated Sleep Unit, specialists perform over 350 videopolysomnographic studies annually. CNA holds Top Doctors recognition for its high standard of private healthcare in Spain.
Several physicians have earned individual professional awards:
CNA hosts epilepsy specialist rotations from Central America. The medical team also presents research at major events like the International Congress of Parkinson's Disease.
The clinic manages complex neurological conditions through specialized diagnostic and treatment pathways. The Epilepsy Unit uses prolonged video-EEG monitoring – up to 15 days – to identify seizure origins. This unit reports high surgical success rates:
For neurodegenerative diseases, CNA offers an integrated cognitive decline assessment pathway. The team uses blood biomarkers and PET amyloid imaging to diagnose early-stage Alzheimer's disease. Selected patients may receive advanced anti-amyloid therapies like Donanemab or Lecanemab.
The neurosurgery department focuses on vascular pathologies and tumor removal. Surgeons perform wide craniotomies to treat giant meningiomas measuring up to 8 cm. They use intraoperative neurophysiological mapping to protect brain function during these procedures.
The Spine Unit specializes in minimally invasive techniques for degenerative disc lesions. Dr. Pablo Clavel leads the Artificial Disc Replacement (ADR) program with 25 years of experience. The clinic has performed over 2,500 spine operations. More than 90% of patients report pain reduction.
The Psychiatry department treats adult conditions including depression, anxiety, and personality disorders. Specialists use transcranial magnetic stimulation to treat medication-resistant depression. This non-invasive method uses magnetic pulses delivered through a coil on the head to adjust neural circuits.
Pediatric care comes from the Neurodevelopment and Learning Disorders Unit. The team includes neuropediatricians, psychologists, and speech therapists who treat emotional and behavioral disorders. This unit integrates family and school settings into each child's treatment plan.
CNA provides a full range of neurological testing tools. Specialists use high-resolution Doppler sonography to assess vascular risks in stroke patients. The facility also offers electromyography (EMG) and visual evoked potentials to test nerve and brain function.
The Sleep Unit features specialized equipment for sleep disorder check-ups. Spine surgeons use microsurgical vision systems and radioscopic guidance for precise implant placement. For complex epilepsy cases, the clinic uses Sentiva devices for vagus nerve stimulation.
International patients can access videoconsultations to review medical results and plan treatment. These online sessions allow initial assessments without travel. Physical attendance is only needed for imaging or instrumental studies. CNA partners with Hospital Universitario San Rafael for specialized care needs.
