About

Glenn M. Balfour, M.D. is a board-certified neurologist in Carlsbad Village specializing in spinal cord injury medicine and sports neurology on Grand Avenue. His subspecialty fellowship at the University of California Irvine in spinal cord rehabilitation places the practice alongside neuromusculoskeletal providers such as Gaspar Doctors of Physical Therapy that manage post-injury recovery protocols. A graduate of Tel Aviv University School of Medicine (1999), he completed neurology residency training across Montefiore Medical Center, West Virginia University, and Louisiana State University before finishing at UC Irvine. Clinical focus areas include nerve conduction studies, radiculopathy evaluation, and chronic pain diagnostics, complementing the neurocognitive testing available at BrainCare Performance Center Carlsbad. Hospital privileges at Sharp Grossmont and Paradise Valley support inpatient consultations for acute neurological events requiring electrodiagnostic workup. Nerve conduction velocity and electromyography studies performed on-site use multi-channel electrodiagnostic systems to localize lesions along the brachial plexus, lumbar plexus, and individual peripheral nerve segments.
