A&W EMG Muscle and Nerve is comprised of Dr. William T. Allred and Dr. William D. Watson, along with their team of highly trained technicians and staff.  Each of them are committed to providing their patients the upmost care and compassion.   A&W specializes in performing electromyography studies.  Electromyography, or EMG, is a diagnostic test that measures how well the muscles respond to the electrical signals emitted to specialized nerve cells called motor nerves. A doctor may order an EMG test if a person has symptoms of a muscular or neurological condition, such as numbness or unexplained weakness in the limbs.

​

An EMG can be used to diagnose a wide variety of neuromuscular diseases, motor problems, nerve injuries, or degenerative conditions, such as:

​

• Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)

• Carpal tunnel syndrome

• Cervical spondylosis

• Guillain-Barre syndrome

• Lambert-Eaton syndrome

• Muscular dystrophy

• Myasthenia gravis

• Peripheral neuropathy

• Polymyositis
