About

Ednea A Simon, MD

As a child neurologist at the Swedish Pediatric Neuroscience Center, I care for young patients with a wide variety of acute and chronic neurological disorders. My specialty is pediatric epilepsy and seizure disorders.

I love working with children. They are natural fighters and bring hope to everyone around them – medical staff, families, fellow patients. In my practice, I partner with parents and families to provide their kids with the tools they need to be the best they can be. Sometimes these tools include medications and other therapies. But, I believe the most important tools I offer are hope and love.
