 I'm Megan Margiata, a faculty member at the University of Maryland School of Medicine and an epilepsy specialist. I really had an interest in neurology because I think that's not so clear cut yet. We're still learning a lot about what happens in neurologic disorders. I think the research is really interesting and we still have a lot to learn. And then specifically for epilepsy I like that you get to take care of patients through a lot of their lifetime from some kids when they're really young through when they're into adulthood because they'll have seizures for most patients lifelong. So sometimes I'm seeing outpatients in the office. Other times I'm in inpatients seeing the epilepsy monitoring unit admissions. And then also we read EEGs. All of my training was previously in Philadelphia at Jefferson Medical College is where I went for medical school. I stayed there for my residency. I did leave for one year and did my intern year at Pennsylvania Hospital, which is just down the street, then came back and finished the neurology residency and did a two-year fellowship in epilepsy there. I have two goals. The one is to be seizure free for my patients and then for them to have minimal to no side effects on the medications that we use to treat their seizures. I want them to live as much of a normal life as they can. I try to really provide comprehensive care for my patients, so coordinating with other specialists if it's needed, but really I just enjoy seeing my patients and developing a long-term relationship with them, again because I'll get to know them for a while since epilepsy is usually treated for lifelong.
