Marisa Prelack is a pediatric neurologist with the Division of Neurology at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, with a particular focus on the care of children with epilepsy.
“[I see] absolutely crazy things. A lot of patients ask me why I went into this field and I tell them, well, I get to be a detective. I get to play with kids and I got to reassure or try to reassure parents.”

The toll that headaches can take on a child and their family. What it’s like to support a family as a child gradually loses neurologic function.
