Dr. Sean Jochims | Neurologist & Sleep Doctor in Waukesha County
Dr. Sean Jochims graduated medical school with the prestigious Rick Wartgow Award for dedication to medicine. He also received Excellence in Teaching Awards as chief resident in neurology at the Medical College of Wisconsin.
After completing his neurology residency and fellowship in clinical neurophysiology, he brought his specialized expertise to Waukesha County and the local community hospitals. There he helped develop the epilepsy monitoring units at Waukesha Memorial Hospital. He was also the first in the community to offer ambulatory EEG and video EEG monitoring.
In 2001, he became the first neurologist in Waukesha County to offer Botox therapy for movement disorders such as hemifacial spasm, blepharospasm, torticollis, limb dystonias and spasticity. He now offers Botox for migraine headache management, as well.
In 2009, Dr. Jochims founded Neurological Wellness Clinic with the focus on outpatient neurological illness, neurophysiology and sleep medicine. Neurological Wellness Clinic is the only medical clinic to offer CPAP therapy directly to patients. The comprehensive sleep services include initial evaluation, in-lab or at-home sleep testing and CPAP therapy. Dr. Jochims is also closely allied with local dentists specializing in sleep dentistry.
Having earned board certification in three subspecialty areas of medicine allows him to more effectively treat patients with many neurological and sleep issues.
