When a child’s first seizure is unprovoked (not triggered by trauma, hypoglycemia or fever), it’s important to determine if the child has epilepsy or an underlying neurological disorder. In the uncertainty that follows a first seizure, Gillette Children's is here to help with the First Seizure Clinic.

Gillette Children's is widely recognized for its expertise in treating complex and rare conditions, including AFM. In fact, most Minnesota children diagnosed with AFM during the latest outbreaks received care from Gillette.

Children are often diagnosed with spina bifida before birth, in the second trimester of a pregnancy. Parents seeking information are welcome to seek out a prenatal consultation at Gillette
