Telephone review for people with epilepsy

Telephone consultations are well suited to epilepsy review, particularly for those ineligible to drive. Careful patient selection and a courtesy call beforehand, by an administrator, increases efficiency and saves patient anxiety and clinician time. This paper gives advice based upon the author's experience of telephone review of patients with epilepsy.
