Sponsored by Overlake Medical Center and Clinics.<\/p>\n<p>SEATTLE \u2014 Doctors at the Overlake Neuroscience Institute are working to demystify seizures and epilepsy, offering patients on the Eastside access to advanced testing and specialized care.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. John Eaton, a neurologist at the institute, says Overlake is one of the few epilepsy centers serving Seattle\u2019s Eastside, giving patients a place to turn for comprehensive evaluation and treatment.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPatients can go there for any type of epilepsy care that they need for any sort of specialist treatment,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Eaton explained that what makes the center unique is its ability to provide advanced diagnostic tools in one place.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe offer advanced diagnostic testing, including EEG brain imaging,&#8221; he said. &#8220;People can get all the care that they need to figure out what&#8217;s going on with their seizures and to get them appropriately treated.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Epilepsy is defined by having multiple unprovoked epileptic seizures, caused by abnormal electrical activity in the brain. That distinguishes it from a single seizure brought on by something like a brain injury, alcohol withdrawal, or a medication reaction.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s important to get that figured out as sort of a first step,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Warning signs can vary widely. While many people picture the classic generalized tonic-clonic seizure involving full\u2011body stiffening and shaking, Dr. Eaton said symptoms can be far more subtle.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeople can have other things like just a weird d\u00e9j\u00e0 vu feeling,&#8221; he said&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.king5.com\/article\/sponsor-story\/overlake-eeg-technology-helps-doctors-pinpoint-root-of-seizures-epilepsy\/281-a02fc9cb-0e8d-46a0-93d9-8860d3ecaf14\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>EEG technology helps doctors pinpoint the root of seizures https:\/\/www.king5.com\/article\/sponsor-story\/overlake-eeg-technology-helps-doctors-pinpoint-root-of-seizures-epilepsy\/281-a02fc9cb-0e8d-46a0-93d9-8860d3ecaf14 Publish Date: 2026-05-13 19:43:00 Source&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":245497,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/media.king5.com\/assets\/KING\/images\/e7db6499-9886-459f-8152-3bb079cf454d\/e7db6499-9886-459f-8152-3bb079cf454d_1140x641.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[119],"class_list":["post-245495","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-technology","tag-medical"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/245495"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=245495"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/245495\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":245499,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/245495\/revisions\/245499"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/245497"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=245495"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=245495"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=245495"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
