Introduction

About our institute

The National Institute of Mental Health, Neurology and Neurosurgery (Országos Mentális, Ideggyógyászati és Idegsebészeti Intézet; OMIII) was established in 2021 by the merge of two renowned institutions that have accumulated extensive knowledge over the past decades: the National Insitute of Neurosciences and NyírÅ‘ Gyula National Institute of Psychiatry and Addictions. This institution continuing the traditions of its predecessors plays an important role not only in inpatient and outpatient care, but also in education, research and in the development and introduction of new therapeutic methods and technologies. Our highly qualified medical specialists and nurses having extensive knowledge and experience in this field treat children and adults admitted to the institution with great empathy and care.

About our Amerikai Road premise

Neurosurgeons, neurologists, neuro-oncologists, epileptologists and stroke experts work together in our Institute as a team. This guarantees the most optimal and effective circumstances for the treatment of patients: in-house examinations are performed quickly, so that there is an immediate chance of consultation and intervention. In many cases, survival and the chance of unaltered quality of life are due to these factors.
Today, OMIII is the third largest neurosurgical centre of Europe. It is a vanguard of neuronavigational methods that require great surgical precision, ablative operations that can in many cases be replaced by neurostimulating interventions in the field of spinal surgery, involving smaller incisions and many other modern neurosurgical procedures. Hungary’s first and only Paediatric Neurosurgery is part of our institute. The professional expertise that has accumulated here through the years is of inestimable value.


About our Lehel Street premise

On our Lehel Street premise we treat patients primarily with psychiatric and addictive disorders from all over the county, beyond our territorial supply obligation. The therapeutic work of our Psychiatric and Addiction units is supported by somatic units as well, making it possible to treat both the mental and somatic issues of our patients.
Psychiatry and addictology is shifting more and more toward outpatient care, thus, taking it into account we have opened several new specialised outpatient care units. These new units are available for people suffering from different mental disorders. In our institution several nationally uniqe outpatient care units are available, where patients with ADHD and substance abuse, or patients with OCD can apply for treatment.
