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".

Hi, this doctor was very, very explained everything to me. He was very courteous. He was very respectful. I would recommend him to anyone. It's a very new relationship since it was our first time seeing him, but we liked him very much. Thank you.

Very courteous and knowledgeable! Spent as much time needed to explain what could be going on with my daughter and also encouraged us to come back in case what we are doing now isn't working. He was very patient and was impressed by the way my daughter was able to communicate with him. Some of the things that he recommended, we already had in place, but it was great to have that affirmation from him and knowing that we are going in the right direction. He brought a better understanding as to why things could be happening to her. Therefore, I really appreciate him.
