About

Movement disorder neurology and epilepsy management are the subspecialties Dr. Rupa Nanavati, MD brings to San Diego's Allied Gardens at Kaiser Permanente Zion Medical Center, 4647 Zion Ave, 92120. Board certified in neurology by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology under NPI 1518137868 and California license A98348, she completed her medical degree at the University of Birmingham in England in 2000, a neurology residency and epilepsy fellowship at the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston, and a second fellowship in movement disorders at UC San Diego. That dual-fellowship background positions her clinical scope across Parkinson's disease management, epilepsy monitoring, migraine evaluation, and clinical neurophysiology, conditions that frequently require rehabilitation coordination with physical therapy providers including San Diego Sports Medicine & Family Health Center in Grantville. Dr. Nanavati also holds affiliations with the Jennifer Moreno Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center on La Jolla Village Drive and with Palomar Medical Center Escondido, extending her inpatient neurology access beyond the Kaiser network. Her neurological exam protocols include electromyography, nerve-conduction studies, and visual-field assessments coordinated with optometric providers at Allied Gardens Family Optometry for cases involving optic nerve pathology or medication-induced visual changes. The Zion campus sits along the Interstate 8 corridor in Allied Gardens, a 92120 neighborhood between Waring Road and Orcutt Avenue accessible from the Waring Road freeway exit. Appointments route through Kaiser's centralized scheduling at (619) 528-5000.
