bio
Grant Turek, MD is a board-certified pediatric neurologist and clinical neurophysiology specialist at Dayton Children's Hospital. Dr. Turek is no stranger to the Dayton region. He attended the University of Dayton where he completed his undergraduate degree in pre-medicine and mechanical engineering technology. After his time in Dayton, he completed his medical school education at Loyola University Chicago Stritch School of Medicine in Illinois. He then went on to complete a residency in Child Neurology, a mini-fellowship in epilepsy, and a fellowship in clinical neurophysiology at the University of Louisville in Kentucky. Dr. Turek has returned to Dayton to join pediatric neurology practice at Dayton Children's, where he aims to help children and families to overcome any roadblock to a child's growth and development. He believes that every kid deserves a happy and healthy childhood.
Dr. Turek chose to specialize in pediatric neurology because the way the brain and nervous system work is unique and inspiring. It excites him to think that while we know so much about the brain, we continue to learn new things daily. When asked why he loves working with children he said, "Their world is still so full of potential and possibility. Even children with complex medical conditions have the capacity to change the world if they have the willpower and many of them do".

Dr. Turek was fantastic with my son! He picked up very quickly on his personality and explained what he felt was going on in a simple way for us to understand. He took his time and took in listening to everything we had to say about our history with his tics and things we have tried and allowed us to be a part of the decision making for a treatment plan.

I am very pleased with our visit with this provider. He was very thorough with the examination. He was also personable with my child and they discussed similarites in their hobbys. He definitely loves what he does and I am glad we are with hime through my child's journey of finding out what is going on.

Dr. Turek is excellent with my daughter. He takes time to listen to the parent and he also engages to ask her whether or not she has any questions or concerns that haven't been brought up by the parent. We have only seen Dr. Turek for just over a year after her previous provider at the Navy Base, I'm sorry, the Air Force Base retired, but we have been very pleased and appreciate Dr. Turek and the care he has given to our daughter. He is excellent. We could not ask for better. Thank you.
