What Makes Us Different
We understand that many patients face long wait times, brief appointments, and limited support when seeking neurological or chronic pain care. At Coastal Neurology & Wellness Center, we take a different approach:
Longer, unrushed appointments
Comprehensive neurological and pain-focused evaluations
Non-opioid, evidence-based treatment strategies
Strong emphasis on education and self-management
Care plans tailored to your life—not just your diagnosis
Our care model allows us to treat the whole person while addressing the complex overlap between neurology and chronic pain.
Our Approach
We specialize in the management of conditions such as:
Migraine and headache disorders
Neuropathic pain
Fibromyalgia and centralized pain syndromes
Post-concussion symptoms
Long COVID–related neurological concerns
Using a mix of in-person visits and a virtual platform, we are able to reach patients more quickly and conveniently, while maintaining high clinical standards and continuity of care.
Our Commitment
As nurse practitioners, we bring a holistic, patient-centered philosophy to specialty care. We believe patients deserve to be informed, empowered, and actively involved in their treatment decisions.
Our mission is to improve access to high-quality neurology and chronic pain care while building lasting, trusting relationships with our patients.
Coastal Neurology & Wellness Center — expert care, centered around you.
Patient Reviews
“Dr. Israel spent real time with me, gave me realistic expectations, listened to my concerns, asked questions, and made me feel so comfortable and listened to. First time in a while that I have hope and confidence in the care I am receiving.”
-CNWC Patient
“I have not had a neurologist in many years, not since I moved to Delaware, and getting to work with Stephen was refreshing. He was kind, organized, and thoughtful during our first interaction, and allowed me to have input into my treatment plan. I know I am in good hands. I would recommend the Israels to anyone looking for more personable, yet still professional, medical care.”
-CNWC Patient
“It was my first visit and Stephen was very thorough and spent a lot of time explaining my issues and how we can proceed and gauge my progress. I will be working with this practice for other services they provide.
I believe this Neurology and Wellness Center will be a wonderful addition to this area.”
