Nerve and Muscle Testing (EMG/NCS) Since 1989
Bingham Nerve & Muscle specializes in state-of-the-art nerve and muscle testing (electromyography or EMG/NCS). Electromyography is the standard for accurate and comprehensive evaluations of the peripheral nervous system (the “electrical system” of the body or the "wires" of the arm and leg). Patients with complaints such as pain, numbness, or tingling in the arms and legs often require an evaluation. Patients with unexplained weakness of the arms and legs often require a visit as well. This procedure is also an important method for evaluating muscle disorders. The physicians at Bingham Nerve & Muscle have devoted their careers exclusively to electromyogrpaphy and the evaluation of nerve and muscle disorders.
This narrow focus has given our staff a unique depth of experience allowing us to make an accurate diagnosis for patients. Each year several hundred providers ask us to evaluate their patients. We perform this test to assist your provider in the management of your condition. We do not manage or treat patients.

Our friendly staff is committed to giving patients the very best care. With new technology and the special approaches developed by Dr. Bingham, this test can be performed with very little discomfort for both adults and children (over age 8). Our physicians, Ronald Bingham, M.D. and Remy Valdivia, M.D., are board certified in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation and also Electrodiagnostic Medicine. Additionally, all the technicians are Certified Nerve Conduction Technologists.
Bingham Nerve & Muscle was founded by Ronald C. Bingham, M.D. in 1989. Over the past 30 years, we have extended our services to reach patients throughout the Mid-South with seven offices located in Tennessee and Northern Mississippi. There are very few accredited laboratories in Tennessee and Mississippi. All of our facilities are accredited with exemplary status. We welcome patients with all forms of insurance including Medicare, Medicaid, and TriCare. We are also in network with most commercial and workers' compensation carriers.
Our five technologists are all certified and have the most up-to-date training. Each is a Certified Nerve Conduction Technologist (CNCT). To earn the CNCT credential, a technologist has to meet three requirements: eligibility (through work and education), a rigorous written and practical examination that tests competency in NCSs, and an ongoing commitment to learning.
We are proud that all of our EMG labs are accredited by the American Association of Neuromuscular and Electrodiagnostic Medicine with Exemplary Status, the highest level of accreditation a laboratory can achieve under the AANEM Accreditation Program. The AANEM developed the Electrodiagnostic Laboratory Accreditation Program as a voluntary, peer review process that ...
