The Neuromuscular Center (NMC) is one
of three major divisions of the Institute for Exercise and
Environmental Medicine (IEEM), a clinical and research facility
sponsored by Presbyterian Hospital of Dallas and the University
of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas. Members
of the medical staff combine their knowledge with basic
science and clinical research to apply scientific discovery
to human conditions that affect exercise performance.
The NMC is dedicated to evaluating and treating individuals
who experience abnormal muscle pain, fatigue, and weakness
with exercise. The symptoms are often caused by metabolic
muscle disorders that are difficult to diagnose by conventional
methods, so patients and their doctors can be frustrated
for years.
The Center is directed by Dr. Ronald G. Haller, an international
expert in metabolic disorders of skeletal muscle. He is
joined by Dr. Alan Martin who serves as the center's Clinical
Director and has extensive clinical experience in the management
of patients with neuromuscular disorders.
The NMC brings together an exceptional staff of clinicians
and scientists who are recognized as world experts in the
development and application of exercise and biochemical
testing. Combining these human resources with an exceptional
facility permits an unmatched capability to evaluate and
treat disorders of exercise intolerance and to discover
new scientific knowledge through research on these conditions.
