Seizure Free… But Still Struggling? Rethinking Epilepsy Care - Dr. Lucretia Long

Is seizure freedom enough in epilepsy care? Dr. Lucretia Long, epilepsy specialist nurse practitioner, shares why care must go beyond seizure control - with psychiatric symptoms, medication side effects, and cognitive challenges shaping quality of life just as much as seizures. This episode explores how to individualise care, why patient priorities must lead decisions, and how small, realistic changes can improve wellbeing.
