Use of primary healthcare for persons with epilepsy.
CONCLUSION: Children with epilepsy have a higher use of services provided by the GP both before and after the epilepsy diagnosis compared with children without epilepsy. This is likely due to a higher prevalence of comorbid conditions in children with epilepsy as well as consequences of the underlying condition.
