Multiple Sclerosis And Neuroinflammation Center
Dr. Akash Virupakshaiah is a neurologist who cares for children and adults with autoimmune diseases affecting the brain. His expertise encompasses diagnosing and treating complex neurological conditions that pose challenges to the patient's health and well-being, such as multiple sclerosis, neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder, or NMOSD (in which the immune system attacks nerves in the eye and spinal cord), and myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease, or MOGAD (in which the immune system attacks the tissue that protects neurons). Virupakshaiah's research seeks to advance the understanding and treatment of autoimmune diseases that affect the brain and spinal cord, including through clinical trials (studies using human volunteers to evaluate promising treatments) and observational studies (tracking patients over time to gather insights on disease activity, risk factors and treatment effectiveness). His interests encompass neuroimmunology (the interplay between the immune and the nervous systems) and neuroimaging (advanced techniques for visualizing and analyzing brain structure and function). He collaborates with other researchers at UCSF and partners with the U.S. Network of Pediatric Multiple Sclerosis Centers (US NPMSC). In addition to developing more effective therapies that will improve patients' lives, he is exploring the impact of diet on multiple sclerosis and identifying biomarkers (substances in body fluids or tissues that can provide information related to a disease). Virupakshaiah earned his medical degree at Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences, India. He completed a combined residency in pediatric neurology at the Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children, an affiliate of Thomas Jefferson University, and at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, an affiliate of the University of Pennsylvania. He completed a fellowship in multiple sclerosis and neuroimmunology at UCSF.

How does MediFind rank Child Neurologists in California, US?
MediFind’s rankings are based on a variety of data sources, such as the number of articles a doctor has published in medical journals, participation in clinical trials and industry conferences, as well as the number of patients that provider sees for a given condition. Note that MediFind’s provider database is not based on user reviews, and providers do not pay to be included in the database.
What types of insurance are accepted by Child Neurologists in California, US?
Most profiles in MediFind’s doctor database include a list of insurance plans accepted by that provider. However, it’s a good idea to contact the provider’s office to make sure they still accept your insurance, then doublecheck by contacting your insurance plan to confirm they’re in network.
How can I book an appointment online with a Child Neurologist in California?
MediFind offers direct scheduling for certain providers using the “Request Appointment” button on that provider’s profile. If the schedule option is not available for a provider, tap the red “Show Phone Number” button on their profile to get their contact information. If you prefer to find providers who offer online scheduling, select “Schedules online” under the “Availability” category of the filter feature on the left side of the Child Neurologist search results page.
Why is it important to get a second opinion from a different Child Neurologist?
Second opinions are an opportunity to confirm a diagnosis and its root cause, learn about alternative treatment options, or simply gain peace of mind. Many people, especially those with serious diagnoses, get second opinions so they can understand all their options and make informed decisions, so don’t hesitate to get one if you have any doubts or need more information or clarification regarding your care. Note that some insurance plans require second opinions, while others don’t cover second opinions, so be sure to confirm with your insurance provider first.
How can I prepare for my appointment with a Child Neurologist in California, US?
Prepare for your appointment by gathering the following items:
- Copies of medical records (dating back at least one year)
- Your medical history, including illnesses, medical conditions, surgeries, and other doctors you see
- Family history of disease
- List of current prescription drugs, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal remedies or supplements including names and doses
- Allergies to medications, food, latex, insects, etc.
- List of questions and concerns
- Your insurance card
You might also contact the provider’s office to see if they offer transportation or childcare services or if you’re allowed to bring a loved one for support or to take notes during your visit.
What questions should I ask my Child Neurologist?
Here are some sample questions:
- Can you explain in simple terms what this condition is and how it’s treated?
- What symptoms or side effects should I watch for?
- What tests will be involved, and when can I expect results?
- Are there other specialists I need to see?
- What’s the best way to reach you if I have follow-up questions?
How can I learn about the latest clinical trials and research advances my Child Neurologist may know about?
MediFind’s Clinical Trials tool asks you a series of questions to help you narrow down your search by health condition, age, gender, location, how far you’re willing to travel, and more. Each question you answer filters down the number of trials until you find the ones that are most relevant to you.
