About RTTC

Real Time Tele-Epilepsy Consultants (RTTC) is a physician led group of Neurologists with subspecialty training and board certification in EEG and Epilepsy committed to making EEG interpretation and seizure management consultation services accessible.
RTTC was formed by George R. Lee, III, M.D. in 2019.

Partnering with Nabil J. Azar, M.D., an expert, board-certified Epileptologist, Drs. Lee and Azar are committed to making remote EEG interpretations and tele-epilepsy consultations accessible to hospitals and providers across the country.
